.Sh DESCRIPTION
.\" ------------------------------------------------------------------
.Nm
is a command line tool that provides commands used for diagnostics, monitoring
and health checks of RabbitMQ nodes.
See the
.Lk https://www.rabbitmq.com/docs "RabbitMQ documentation guides"
to learn more about RabbitMQ diagnostics, monitoring and health checks.

.Nm
allows the operator to inspect node and cluster state. A number of
health checks are available to be used interactively and by monitoring tools.

.Pp
By default if it is not possible to connect to and authenticate with the target node
(for example if it is stopped), the operation will fail.
To learn more, see the
.Lk https://www.rabbitmq.com/docs/monitoring "RabbitMQ Monitoring guide"
.
.\" ------------------------------------------------------------------
.Sh OPTIONS
.\" ------------------------------------------------------------------
.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Fl n Ar node
Default node is
.Qq Pf rabbit@ Ar target-hostname ,
where
.Ar target-hostname
is the local host.
On a host named
.Qq myserver.example.com ,
the node name will usually be
.Qq rabbit@myserver
(unless
.Ev RABBITMQ_NODENAME
has been overridden).
The output of
.Qq hostname -s
is usually the correct suffix to use after the
.Qq @
sign.
See
.Xr rabbitmq-server 8
for details of configuring a RabbitMQ node.
.It Fl q , -quiet
Quiet output mode is selected.
Informational messages are reduced when quiet mode is in effect.
.It Fl s , -silent
Silent output mode is selected.
Informational messages are reduced and table headers are suppressed when silent mode is in effect.
.It Fl t Ar timeout , Fl -timeout Ar timeout
Operation timeout in seconds.
Not all commands support timeouts.
Default is
.Cm infinity .
.It Fl l , Fl -longnames
Must be specified when the cluster is configured to use long (FQDN) node names.
To learn more, see the
.Lk https://www.rabbitmq.com/docs/clustering "RabbitMQ Clustering guide"
.It Fl -erlang-cookie Ar cookie
Shared secret to use to authenticate to the target node.
Prefer using a local file or the
.Ev RABBITMQ_ERLANG_COOKIE
environment variable instead of specifying this option on the command line.
To learn more, see the
.Lk https://www.rabbitmq.com/docs/cli "RabbitMQ CLI Tools guide"

.Sh COMMANDS
.\" ------------------------------------
.Pp
Most commands provided by
.Nm
inspect node and cluster state or perform health checks.
.Pp
Commands that list topology entities (e.g. queues) use tab as column delimiter.
These commands and their arguments are delegated to rabbitmqctl(8).
.Pp
Some commands (
.Cm list_queues ,
.Cm list_exchanges ,
.Cm list_bindings
and
.Cm list_consumers )
accept an optional
.Ar vhost
parameter.
.Pp
The
.Cm list_queues ,
.Cm list_exchanges
and
.Cm list_bindings
commands accept an optional virtual host parameter for which to display
results.
The default value is
.Qq / .
