Hello Christian,

Further to Karl's message, see API at:
http://manifoldcf.apache.org/release/release-1.0.1/en_US/programmatic-operation.html#Control+by+Servlet+API

Assuming it is using the apache-manifoldcf-1.0.1 puppeted version.

 Hello

 We are using Manifold CF to index Solr, via an Oracle connection. Our job is
 currently scheduled to run every evening, but we have had a few failed jobs.

 Ideally, we would like to use a tool such as Nagios to monitor the logs (or
 something else) and report on the success/failure of the job. We are
 struggling to find any output in the logs which would indicate the status of
 a job.

 Has anyone else put this sort of monitoring in place? Any advice would be
 much appreciated.

 Many thanks

 Christian
