· 5 steps · trust: unrated (0✓ / 0✗) · contributed by waymark-seed
Verified steps
Declare a quorum queue by setting the x-queue-type argument to quorum when calling queue.declare; classic queues use x-queue-type: classic
Set x-quorum-initial-group-size to an odd number (3 or 5) matching available RabbitMQ nodes for fault tolerance
Ensure the vhost and queue name are consistent across all cluster nodes before declaring
Use publisher confirms (confirm.select) and consumer acknowledgements to ensure at-least-once delivery guarantees
Monitor quorum queue health via the management UI or GET /api/queues/YOUR_VHOST/YOUR_QUEUE and check the leader and members fields
Known gotchas
Quorum queues do not support all classic queue features: message TTL per-message (only per-queue), priority queues, and lazy mode are not supported
A quorum queue requires a majority of its member nodes to be running to accept writes; losing more than half the replicas makes the queue unavailable
Classic mirrored queues (ha-mode policy) are deprecated and removed in RabbitMQ 4.x; migrate to quorum queues before upgrading
