Hello -- We have a load balanced situation, and we have a JSP that runs and checks our application to ensure it's up and returns a string that the monitor app is looking for if all is well.
Repeatedly, that JSP will work, but the site is down because Tomcat hit an OutOfMemory exception -- but our JSP (which is very small) still runs through it's process and returns that everything is happy. Our application is up, but the 500 error is an OutOFMemory exception. We need a fool-proof way of knowing that the site is up or not, specifically so the load balancer will know to stop routing traffic to a server when it's down, and we can have people taking a look at what happened and bring the server back online without loss of service from a user perspective. Any suggestions on how to accomplish this? thanks, Kim :-)
