Title: RabbitMQ connections lack heartbeat or TCP keepalives Status in OpenStack Telemetry (Ceilometer): In Progress Status in Ceilometer icehouse series: Fix Released Status in Cinder: New Status in Orchestration API (Heat): Confirmed Status in OpenStack Neutron (virtual network service): In Progress Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova): Invalid Status in Oslo - a Library of Common OpenStack Code: In Progress Status in Messaging API for OpenStack: In Progress Bug description: There is currently no method built into Nova to keep connections from various components into RabbitMQ alive. As a result, placing a stateful firewall (such as a Cisco ASA) between the connection can/does result in idle connections being terminated without either endpoint being aware. This issue can be mitigated a few different ways: 1. Connections to RabbitMQ set socket options to enable TCP keepalives. 2. Rabbit has heartbeat functionality. If the client requests heartbeats on connection, rabbit server will regularly send messages to each connections with the expectation of a response. 3. Other?
