Frequently Asked Questions
|
||||
============================
|
||||
|
||||
I don't need notifications on the message bus. How do I disable them?
|
||||
=====================================================================
|
||||
|
||||
Notification messages can be disabled using the ``noop`` notify
|
||||
driver. Set ``notification_driver = noop`` in your configuration file.
|
||||
|
||||
Why does the notification publisher create queues, too? Shouldn't the subscriber do that?
|
||||
=========================================================================================
|
||||
|
||||
The notification messages are meant to be used for integration with
|
||||
external services, including services that are not part of
|
||||
OpenStack. To ensure that the subscriber does not miss any messages if
|
||||
it starts after the publisher, ``oslo.messaging`` ensures that
|
||||
subscriber queues exist when notifications are sent.
|
||||
|
||||
How do I change the queue names where notifications are published?
|
||||
==================================================================
|
||||
|
||||
Notifications are published to the configured exchange using a topic
|
||||
built from a base value specified in the configuration file and the
|
||||
notification "level". The default topic is ``notifications``, so an
|
||||
info-level notification is published to the topic
|
||||
``notifications.info``. A subscriber queue of the same name is created
|
||||
automatically for each of these topics. To change the queue names,
|
||||
change the notification topic using the ``notification_topics``
|
||||
configuration option. The option accepts a list of values, so it is
|
||||
possible to publish to multiple topics.
