Thank you Mark and Rob for giving me such wonderful enlighten about different way of handling this. I will certainly try out both techniques and see which one fits best.
Appreciate all your help. :) From: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com [mailto:jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Mark Waite Sent: Friday, January 03, 2014 10:51 AM To: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: How can I know when Jenkins is down or hung up on something? I've used "check_mk" to monitor many Jenkins servers and other types of services provided by our integration team. It is easy to install on several different Linux variants, and easy to configure. We had to write one script to call the Jenkins API and report results in a format which check_mk could support.

"Monitoring external jobs" is about rigging other jobs (such as cron jobs) to report completion to Jenkins so that you can see it like Jenkins ran the job itself. The JavaMelody one is simply called "Monitoring", and is at https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Monitoring. I've never played with this plugin, nor with JavaMelody. --Rob From: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com<mailto:jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com> [mailto:jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com<mailto:jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com>] On Behalf Of dhrutiben.pa...@wellsfargo.com<mailto:dhrutiben.pa...@wellsfargo.com> Sent: Friday, January 03, 2014 1:40 PM To: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com<mailto:jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com> Subject: RE: How can I know when Jenkins is down or hung up on something? Rob, Thank you so much for your quick response. Is this the right plugin to look into "Monitoring external jobs" for this matter? --Thank You From: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com<mailto:jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com> [mailto:jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Mandeville, Rob Sent: Friday, January 03, 2014 10:35 AM To: 'jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com<mailto:jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com>' Subject: RE: How can I know when Jenkins is down or hung up on something? You're going to need an external monitoring tool. Pretty much by definition, Jenkins can't tell you when it's hung or down. I do know that there is a plugin that reports to Java Melody. For any other tool, you may want to create a scheduled job in Jenkins that sends a message to the tool, and have the tool respond to not getting the expected messages. --Rob From: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com<mailto:jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com> [mailto:jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of dhrutiben.pa...@wellsfargo.com<mailto:dhrutiben.pa...@wellsfargo.com> Sent: Friday, January 03, 2014 1:26 PM To: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com<mailto:jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com> Subject: How can I know when Jenkins is down or hung up on something? Hi, Are there any ways to know when Jenkins is down or hung up on something? I am trying to find out what is the best way to handle this kind of situation? --Thank you -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
