Message Age Alerting should not depend upon queue activity
----------------------------------------------------------
Key: QPID-430
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-430
Project: Qpid
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Java Broker
Affects Versions: M2
Reporter: Marnie McCormack
Priority: Minor
Fix For: M2
Currently Message Age Alerting can be confiured such that the user might expect
to see alerts about 'old' messages when they exceed the configured threshold.
However, the alerting actually depends upon queue activity i.e.
publication/consumption on the queue. Unfortunately, since on of the key
purposes for the alerting is to make operate teams aware of a probable issue
preventing message consumption this is not ideal i.e. if a publisher sends a
message and then has no further activity and no consumer is connected, then no
alerts are generated.
We should implement a solution whereby alerting for message age is no longer
tied to queue acivity (i.e. not triggered in this way) but is independent.
