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

       Use the management interface of RabbitMQ to count the number of pending, ready and unacknowledged
       messages and number of consumers.  These are published as performance metrics for the check.

       Critical and warning thresholds can be set for each of the metrics.

       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_queue -H rabbit.example.com

       This returns a standard Nagios result:

           RABBITMQ_OVERVIEW OK - messages OK (25794) messages_ready OK (22971)
             messages_unacknowledged OK (2823) consumers OK (10) | messages=25794;;
             messages_ready=22971;; messages_unacknowledged=2823;; consumers=10;;

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