We are running CMK Enterprise 2.1.0p25 on RHEL 8. We are having issues getting the RabbitMQ plugin to work at all.
The rule is configured under Setup → Agent → Other Integrations → RabbitMQ as follows:
A TCPDump from the host shows that it isn’t even trying to connect to the port of the rabbit server
The host is configured to ‘Configured API Integrations and CheckMK Agent’
Here is the output of the cmk --debug -vnn hostname with some information redacted:
Checkmk version 2.1.0p25
