Alert based on "Queued Messages" #6

Open sammeidroid opened 7 years ago

sammeidroid commented 7 years ago

In order to use the plugin, we need a possibility to let us know (NewRelic Alert) if there are too many items in the queue. Based on the three types "Total Messages", "Ready Messages" and "Unacknowledged Messages" similar to the example in the link below.

This feature is crucial for us whether we use the plugin or not. We cannot implement this feature as a code change. @brentpabst Can you help us?

rohmcd commented 7 years ago

We are looking for this feature, the same as @sammeidroid. +1 from me.

MarkEngelsman commented 7 years ago

Same with us. Is there a solution for this already?

MarkEngelsman commented 7 years ago

For everyone still searching for the solution: it's already there, but a little hard to find.

You have to use this custom metric in NewRelic: Component/Server/Queued[Messages]

This is the metric name the plugin sends to NewRelic @rohmcd @sammeidroid
