Right - so this is indeed another instance of the problem reported at http://rabbitmq.1065348.n5.nabble.com/Shovels-not-reconnecting-with-RabbitMQ-3-1-0-td26372.html - because you don't set an explicit reconnect_delay, the shovel workers permanently halt once the first connection attempt fails, instead of restarting (after a slight delay) and trying again. As a temporary fix, you can add in the default reconnect_delay yourself, using {reconnect_delay, 5}. We will, as I said earlier, include the fix (which has already been merged) in the next service release.

Cheers,
Tim
