Workaround for Bug #9068 (foreman-tasks qpid connection seems broken)

Support

http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/9068

Right now this bug is proving to be a blocker for us.
Once the queue fills up then no new tasks can be executed and even if the
processes are manually killed or even if the system is rebooted they are
still in the DB.
Sometimes, an single repo sync in pulp is enough to fill up the queue.

What is the impact like for others out there?
Does anybody have a workaround?

For us we've found that we can't use Foreman as long as this bug is
present…
I was hoping this would be fixed in Sprint 44 but it just got bumped to
Sprint 45 (this bug has been in since Sprint 42…)

I'm in the same boat for the past couple of weeks looking for a workaround.
2.1.1 is nearly unusable with this bug and the max open files bug but at
least I know how to work around the max files bug.

Any help anybody can offer would be very welcome.

The issue is being actively worked on, and has been bumped around simply
due to not arriving at a solution by the end of the given sprints. Devs are
having to look into the qpid library itself as well as build new packages
that are proving troublesome to test if upgrading them will fix the issue.
We are also going to look into disabling that particular task from running
as an option for a 2.1.Z release.
