perl v5.38.2                                       2024-05-08                       CHECK_RABBITMQ_ALIVENESS(1p)

       Use the management interface of RabbitMQ to check that the server is alive.  It declares a test queue,
       then publishes and consumes a message.

       It uses Monitoring::Plugin and accepts all standard Nagios options.

       The check tries to provide useful error messages on the status line for standard error conditions.

       Otherwise it returns the HTTP Error message returned by the management interface.

       The defaults all work with a standard fresh install of RabbitMQ, and all that is needed is to specify the
       host to connect to:

           check_rabbitmq_aliveness -H rabbit.example.com

       This returns a standard Nagios result:

           RABBITMQ_ALIVENESS OK - vhost: /

       You can choose a different vhost to use for the check also:

           check_rabbitmq_aliveness -H rabbit.example.com --vhost /foo

       Returns  zero  if check is OK otherwise returns standard Nagios exit codes to signify WARNING, UNKNOWN or
       CRITICAL state.
