ActiveMQ monitoring with Netdata
ActiveMQ
is an open source message broker written in Java together with a full Java
Message Service client.
This plugin collects queues and topics metrics using ActiveMQ Console API.
Charts
It produces following charts per queue and per topic:

Configuration
Edit the go.d/activemq.conf
configuration file using edit-config
from the
Netdata config directory, which is typically at /etc/netdata
.
cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory
sudo ./edit-config go.d/activemq.conf
Here is an example for 2 servers:
jobs:
- name: local
url: http://127.0.0.1:8161
webadmin: admin
max_queues: 100
max_topics: 100
queues_filter: '!sandr* *'
topics_filter: '!sandr* *'
- name: remote
url: http://203.0.113.10:8161
webadmin: admin
For all available options, please see the
module configuration file.
Troubleshooting
To troubleshoot issues with the activemq
collector, run the go.d.plugin
with the debug option enabled. The output
should give you clues as to why the collector isn't working.
First, navigate to your plugins directory, usually at /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/
. If that's not the case on your
system, open netdata.conf
and look for the setting plugins directory
. Once you're in the plugin's directory, switch
to the netdata
user.
cd /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/
sudo -u netdata -s
You can now run the go.d.plugin
to debug the collector:
./go.d.plugin -d -m activemq
