Avamar - RabbitMQ errors

If you are seeing RabbitMQ errors in your Avamar logs, you'll want to correct the issue. The RabbitMQ error is often due to a mis-configuration of the BRM Service. If you're not using BRM, but the MCS is expecting to see/send data to BRM you can get errors in the logs for the RabbitMQ.

Check your mcserver.xml file for a line "enableBrmService". If set to "true" and you're not using BRM, then it should be set to "false".

admin@AVAMAR:/usr/local/avamar/var/mc/server_data/prefs/>: grep -i enableBRM mcserver.xml

You should see output similar to

<entry key="enableBrmService" value="true" />

If so, edit the mcserver.xml with vi, and change the entry to "false".

Stop, then start the MCS service

mcserver.sh --stop

mcserver.sh --start

Log back into the GUI and clear out the error logs.

You should not see the RabbitMQ errors any more.
