monitoring nagios

gistfile1.txt

There exists several nagios-plugin. `nagios-plugins-rabbitmq` uses the management-interface, hence docker shouldn't be an issue here. it supports checks likes `check_rabbitmq_queue`, `check_rabbitmq_shovels`, `check_rabbitmq_watermark`, `check_rabbitmq_connections`, ...

here is the project: https://github.com/nagios-plugins-rabbitmq/nagios-plugins-rabbitmq

I didn't see a way howto install the plugin, but i do not know nagios very good.

I found some other plugins but one should install the most promising ones and compare them.

As far as i know you also like to monitor the memory of the rabittmq docker container to detect memory leaks and such. Of 
course this is not related to rabbitmq but to docker itself. There are multiple docker plugins for nagios but `check_docker`
looks very good to me. It supports checks for memory, status, uptime, image version, ...

The installation looks pretty easy: pip install check_docker
