RabbitMQ


·


RabbitMQ collector monitors RabbitMQ by collecting data through the plug-in rabbitmq-management and can:

  • RabbitMQ overview, such as connections, queues, total messages, and so on.
  • Track RabbitMQ queue information, such as queue size, consumer count and so on.
  • Rack RabbitMQ node information, such as socket mem.
  • Tracking RabbitMQ exchange information such as message_publish_count.

Configuration

Preconditions

  • RabbitMQ version >= 3.8.14; Already tested version:

    • 3.11.x
    • 3.10.x
    • 3.9.x
    • 3.8.x
  • Install rabbitmq, take Ubuntu as an example

    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install rabbitmq-server
    sudo service rabbitmq-server start
    
  • Start REST API plug-ins

    sudo rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq_management
    
  • Create user, for example:

    sudo rabbitmqctl add_user guance <SECRET>
    sudo rabbitmqctl set_permissions  -p / guance "^aliveness-test$" "^amq\.default$" ".*"
    sudo rabbitmqctl set_user_tags guance monitoring
    

Collector Configuration

Go to the conf.d/rabbitmq directory under the DataKit installation directory, copy rabbitmq.conf.sample and name it rabbitmq.conf. Examples are as follows:

[[inputs.rabbitmq]]
  # rabbitmq url ,required
  url = "http://localhost:15672"

  # rabbitmq user, required
  username = "guest"

  # rabbitmq password, required
  password = "guest"

  # ##(optional) collection interval, default is 30s
  # interval = "30s"

  ## Optional TLS Config
  # tls_ca = "/xxx/ca.pem"
  # tls_cert = "/xxx/cert.cer"
  # tls_key = "/xxx/key.key"
  ## Use TLS but skip chain & host verification
  insecure_skip_verify = false

  ## Set true to enable election
  election = true

  # [inputs.rabbitmq.log]
  # files = []
  # #grok pipeline script path
  # pipeline = "rabbitmq.p"

  [inputs.rabbitmq.tags]
  # some_tag = "some_value"
  # more_tag = "some_other_value"
  # ...

After configuration, restart DataKit.

The collector can now be turned on by ConfigMap injection collector configuration.

Metric

For all of the following data collections, a global tag named host is appended by default (the tag value is the host name of the DataKit), or other tags can be specified in the configuration by [inputs.rabbitmq.tags]:

 [inputs.rabbitmq.tags]
  # some_tag = "some_value"
  # more_tag = "some_other_value"
  # ...

Log Collection

Attention

DataKit must be installed on the host where RabbitMQ is located to collect RabbitMQ logs.

To collect the RabbitMQ log, open files in RabbitMQ.conf and write to the absolute path of the RabbitMQ log file. For example:

    [[inputs.rabbitmq]]
      ...
      [inputs.rabbitmq.log]
        files = ["/var/log/rabbitmq/rabbit@your-hostname.log"]

When log collection is turned on, a log with a log source of rabbitmq is generated by default.

Log Pipeline Function Cut Field Description

  • RabbitMQ universal log cutting

Example of common log text:

2021-05-26 14:20:06.105 [warning] <0.12897.46> rabbitmqctl node_health_check and its HTTP API counterpart are DEPRECATED. See https://www.rabbitmq.com/monitoring.html#health-checks for replacement options.

The list of cut fields is as follows:

Field Name Field Value Description
status warning Log level
msg <0.12897.46>...replacement options Log level
time 1622010006000000000 Nanosecond timestamp (as row protocol time)
