Changes Worth Mentioning

Release notes can be found on GitHub at rabbitmq-server/release-notes.

Core Server

Enhancements

• Free disk space monitor robustness improvements.

  Backported by @drencrom (Canonical).

  GitHub issue: #5739

• raft.adaptive_failure_detector.poll_interval exposes aten's poll_interval setting to
  RabbitMQ users. Increasing it can reduce the probability of false positives in clusters where
  inter-node communication links are used at close to maximum capacity.
  The default is 5000 (5 seconds).

  GitHub issue: #6632

• When both disk_free_limit.relative and disk_free_limit.absolute,
  or both vm_memory_high_watermark.relative and vm_memory_high_watermark.absolute are set,
  the absolute settings will now take precedence.

  GitHub issue: #6513

CLI Tools

Enhancements

• New key supported by rabbitmqctl list_queues: effective_policy_definition that returns
  merged definitions of regular and operator policies effective for the queue.

  GitHub issue: #6556

Management Plugin

Enhancements

  This is an HTTP API counterpart of rabbitmq-diagnostics environment.
