ActiveMQ queue metricset

edit

This is the queue metricset of the ActiveMQ module.

The metricset provides metrics describing the available ActiveMQ queues, especially exchanged messages (enqueued, dequeued, expired, in-flight), connected consumers, producers and its current length.

To collect data, the module communicates with a Jolokia HTTP/REST endpoint that exposes the JMX metrics over HTTP/REST/JSON (JMX key: org.apache.activemq:brokerName=localhost,destinationName=sample_queue,destinationType=Queue,type=Broker).

The queue metricset comes with a predefined dashboard:

This is a default metricset. If the host module is unconfigured, this metricset is enabled by default.
