That is one way of doing things, but Tomcat might not be "healthy" even though the process is running. For instance, I can imagine the following scenarios where the process would be running, but not considered "healthy": 1. Database connection pool is exhausted - possibly permanently 2. Request processing thread pool is exhausted - possibly permanently 3. JVM has experienced an OOME and parts of Tomcat may be unstable That last one is very difficult to detect. ;) In these cases, a Tomcat bounce might be the best action to take. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkzcJUMACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PBwwgCgky9a2BYJuKrPLUMMSLp9vSZ/ 0bMAni/grbihuKLgPMG070pKJdBL5/Te =3jNj -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
