+=head1 NAME
+
+rabbitmq-server - start RabbitMQ AMQP server
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+rabbitmq-server [-detached]
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+RabbitMQ is an implementation of AMQP, the emerging standard for high
+performance enterprise messaging. The RabbitMQ server is a robust and
+scalable implementation of an AMQP broker.
+
+Running rabbitmq-server in the foreground displays a banner message,
+and reports on progress in the startup sequence, concluding with the
+message "broker running", indicating that the RabbitMQ broker has been
+started successfully. To shut down the server, just terminate the
+process or use rabbitmqctl(1). 
+
+=head1 ENVIRONMENT
+
+B<RABBITMQ_MNESIA_BASE>
+    Defaults to /var/lib/rabbitmq/mnesia. Set this to the directory 
+    where Mnesia database files should be placed. 
+
+B<RABBITMQ_LOG_BASE>
+    Defaults to /var/log/rabbitmq. Log files generated by the server
+    will be placed in this directory. 
+
+B<RABBITMQ_NODENAME>
+    Defaults to rabbit. This can be useful if you want to run more
+    than one node per machine - B<RABBITMQ_NODENAME> should be unique
+    per erlang-node-and-machine combination. See clustering on a
+    single machine guide at
+    http://www.rabbitmq.com/clustering.html#single-machine for
+    details.
+
+B<RABBITMQ_NODE_IP_ADDRESS>
+    Defaults to 0.0.0.0. This can be changed if you only want to bind
+    to one network interface. 
+
+B<RABBITMQ_NODE_PORT>
+    Defaults to 5672. 
+
+B<RABBITMQ_CLUSTER_CONFIG_FILE>
+    Defaults to /etc/default/rabbitmq_cluster.config. If this file is
+    present it is used by the server to auto-configure a RabbitMQ
+    cluster.
+    See the clustering guide at http://www.rabbitmq.com/clustering.html
+    for details.
