.Dt RABBITMQ-SERVICE.BAT 8
.Os "RabbitMQ Server"
.Sh NAME
.Nm rabbitmq-service.bat
.Nd manage RabbitMQ AMQP Windows service
.\" ------------------------------------------------------------------
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.\" ------------------------------------------------------------------
.Nm
.Op Ar command
.\" ------------------------------------------------------------------
.Sh DESCRIPTION
.\" ------------------------------------------------------------------
RabbitMQ is an implementation of AMQP, the emerging standard for high
performance enterprise messaging.
The RabbitMQ server is a robust and scalable implementation of an AMQP
broker.
.Pp
Running
.Nm
allows the RabbitMQ broker to be run as a service on
NT/2000/2003/XP/Vista® environments.
The RabbitMQ broker service can be started and stopped using the
Windows® services applet.
.Pp
By default the service will run in the authentication context of the
local system account.
It is therefore necessary to synchronise Erlang cookies between the
local system account (typically
.Pa C:\(rsWindows\(rs.erlang.cookie
and the account that will be used to run
.Xr rabbitmqctl 8 .
.\" ------------------------------------------------------------------
.Sh COMMANDS
.\" ------------------------------------------------------------------
.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Cm help
Display usage information.
.It Cm install
Install the service.
The service will not be started.
Subsequent invocations will update the service parameters if relevant
environment variables were modified.
.It Cm remove
Remove the service.
If the service is running then it will automatically be stopped before
being removed.
No files will be deleted as a consequence and
.Xr rabbitmq-server 8
will remain operable.
.It Cm start
Start the service.
The service must have been correctly installed beforehand.
.It Cm stop
Stop the service.
The service must be running for this command to have any effect.
.It Cm disable
Disable the service.
This is the equivalent of setting the startup type to
.Sy Disabled
using the service control panel.
.It Cm enable
Enable the service.
This is the equivalent of setting the startup type to
.Sy Automatic
using the service control panel.

.Sh ENVIRONMENT
.\" ------------------------------------------------------------------
.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Ev RABBITMQ_SERVICENAME
Defaults to RabbitMQ.
.It Ev RABBITMQ_BASE
Defaults to the application data directory of the current user.
This is the location of log and database directories.
.It Ev RABBITMQ_NODENAME
Defaults to
.Qq rabbit .
This can be useful if you want to run more than one node per machine -
.Ev RABBITMQ_NODENAME
should be unique per erlang-node-and-machine combination.
See the
.Lk http://www.rabbitmq.com/clustering.html#single-machine clustering on a single machine guide
for details.
.It Ev RABBITMQ_NODE_IP_ADDRESS
By default RabbitMQ will bind to all interfaces, on IPv4 and IPv6 if
available.
Set this if you only want to bind to one network interface or address
family.
.It Ev RABBITMQ_NODE_PORT
Defaults to 5672.
.It Ev ERLANG_SERVICE_MANAGER_PATH
Defaults to
.Pa C:\(rsProgram\ Files\(rserl5.5.5\(rserts-5.5.5\(rsbin
(or
.Pa C:\(rsProgram\ Files\ (x86)\(rserl5.5.5\(rserts-5.5.5\(rsbin
for 64-bit environments).
This is the installation location of the Erlang service manager.
.It Ev RABBITMQ_CONSOLE_LOG
Set this varable to
.Sy new or
.Sy reuse
to have the console output from the server redirected to a file named
.Pa SERVICENAME.debug
in the application data directory of the user that installed the
service.
Under Vista this will be
.Pa C:\(rsUsers\(rsAppData\(rsusername\(rsSERVICENAME .
Under previous versions of Windows this will be
.Pa C:\(rsDocuments and Settings\(rsusername\(rsApplication Data\(rsSERVICENAME .
If
.Ev RABBITMQ_CONSOLE_LOG
is set to
.Sy new
then a new file will be created each time the service starts.
If
.Ev RABBITMQ_CONSOLE_LOG
is set to
.Sy reuse
then the file will be overwritten each time the service starts.
The default behaviour when
.Ev RABBITMQ_CONSOLE_LOG
is not set or set to a value other than
.Sy new
or
.Sy reuse
is to discard the server output.
