It would be something that combines all 4 of your items below. I would be looking for something that can just give health status of Tomcat and the apps being hosted by that instance. This wouldn't/shouldn't have any "Admin" rights to do anything other than provide info. HTML is fine, but I think from an automation and dashboard reporting standpoint the json/xml stream/soap response/whatever would be best.
Now, in my possibly short sited view of the world, if wishes were fishes type of thing, to ME it would be awesome if this was automagically available via startup without having to do anything special in the server.xml to make that app available only to localhost on such and such port. Know what I mean? An instant statement of health localhost URL. 😊 Thanks, Dream * Excel * Explore * Inspire Jon McAlexander Senior Infrastructure Engineer Asst.
