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.
-
Navigate to the plugins.d
directory, usually at /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/
. If that's not the case on
your system, open netdata.conf
and look for the plugins
setting under [directories]
.
cd /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/
-
Switch to the netdata
user.
sudo -u netdata -s
-
Run the go.d.plugin
to debug the collector:
./go.d.plugin -d -m activemq
