[rabbitmq-discuss] Stop rabbitmq from sending/receiving messages temporarily

Thu Jan 30 23:49:20 GMT 2014

I want to be able to snapshot rabbitmq's current state by making a copy of 
it's data directory. The data dir could be copied with rsync or btrfs 
subvolume snapshots, zfs snapshots, etc. I want to stop rabbitmq from 
sending and receiving messages so that the copy of the data is consistent 
with other data in the system(like a mysql snapshot being taken at the same 
time). I've seen the memory/disk thresholds for stopping publishers from 
sending more messages. Is there a way to stop consumers (acks)?

Regards,
Daniel
