One thing to keep in mind when health checking ActiveMQ (whether via Prometheus or a load balancer) is that anything that opens a TCP socket to the OpenWire port without actually sending any content will result in the broker logging some content for each such connection. So I second the idea of a JMX-based health check or you could do an HTTP check against the web console, but if you do choose to use a simple TCP socket check against the OpenWire port, be sure you account for the logging it will cause.
