As long as the queues are marked as durable, are not exclusive or
auto-delete, and the messages are marked as persistent, then the queues
and messages should survive a broker restart.

If all these conditions are met in your setup and the messages still
disappear then please post the code that creates the queues and the code
that sends the messages.
