Description Flavio Percoco 2013-06-06 20:21:15 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #960539 +++

From RDO forum user bostrick: http://openstack.redhat.com/forum/discussion/85/is-nova-conductor-leaking-qpid-exchanges

Description of problem: After several hours of operation, there are a large number of qpid exchanges in existence, with a new one being created every ~10s.

To reproduce:
* Start OpenStack
* After a while, run qpid-stat -e lists open exchanges.

Actual results: Many exchanges reported.

Expected results: Few/no exchanges reported


Additional info:

qpid-printevents is displaying transactions similar to the following every 10 secs:

org.apache.qpid.broker:exchangeDeclare ... exName=d75b1d8f76ea46eead02b7480dd28cdf ...
org.apache.qpid.broker:queueDeclare ... qName=d75b1d8f76ea46eead02b7480dd28cdf ...
org.apache.qpid.broker:bind ... exName=d75b1d8f76ea46eead02b7480dd28cdf ...
org.apache.qpid.broker:subscribe ... qName=d75b1d8f76ea46eead02b7480dd28cdf ...
org.apache.qpid.broker:unsubscribe ...
org.apache.qpid.broker:queueDelete ... qName=d75b1d8f76ea46eead02b7480dd28cdf

notably missing is a complement to "exchangeDeclare" to clean it up.

tracing qpid client ports, nova-conductor seems to be the culprit.
