Running rabbitmq as docker service: best practice

[Roman O]

Hello,

Are there any recommendations on how to use rabbitmq inside docker container?

Especially, in relation to durable queues mapped as volume stored at NFS servers?

For example, for MongoDB there's special relevant note

Thanks in advance

One best practice is to not use network mounted filesystems, and absolutely NEVER share node data directories as that's a guaranteed way to correct node state.

Another one is: use stable hostnames as RabbitMQ node names always include a hostname part. Renaming node names is possible with rabbitmqctl

but that's not an easy thing to integrate into deployment automation.

Otherwise [1] covers most relevant parts that are equally applicable to containerized environments.
