RabbitMQ

By enabling this toolset, HolmesGPT will be able to detect RabbitMQ partitions, memory alerts, and disk alerts and suggest mitigations.

This toolset follows a two-step process to detect partition:

  1. The nodes and partitioning status is obtained by fetching information from the configured management_url.
  2. If some nodes are reported as not-running, the toolset will try to contact these nodes individually and deduce any partitioning state for any node that is actually running.

Configuration

holmes:
  toolsets:
    rabbitmq/core:
      enabled: true
      config:
        clusters:
          - id: rabbitmq # must be unique across all configured clusters
            username: <user>
            password: <password>
            management_url: <http://rabbitmq.rabbitmq:15672>

Update your Helm values and run a Helm upgrade: 

helm upgrade robusta robusta/robusta --values=generated_values.yaml --set clusterName=<YOUR_CLUSTER_NAME>

Add the following to ~/.holmes/config.yaml. Create the file if it doesn't exist:

toolsets:
  rabbitmq/core:
    enabled: true
    config:
      clusters:
        - id: rabbitmq # must be unique across all configured clusters
          username: <user>
          password: <password>
          management_url: <http://rabbitmq.rabbitmq:15672>

After making changes to your configuration, run: 

holmes toolset refresh
