[rabbitmq-discuss] rabbit is out of service in disk mode.

Hi 张明涛,

Regardless of whether messages are published as persistent, all messages
are held in RAM. If you publish messages without consuming them them you
will eventually run out of RAM. Your server seems to have enough memory
for 9000 messages.

You will not be able to open any new channels to the broker after the
memory limit has been reached, but existing consumers may continue to
consume messages.

The source repository currently contains a new persister in branch
(bug21673) which will solve your problem. This feature is currently
undergoing QA.

The memory high-watermark is somewhat relevant to your situation. This
can be set in the config file (see
http://www.rabbitmq.com/install.html). The default of 40% is recommended.

Regards

Emile
