I need to load balance (but not cluster) a collection of Tomcats. We have existing load balancers/failover that can probe with an HTTP requests to see if a service is up. However out Tomcats have a number of webapps on and the start-up/shotdown can take quite a few minutes, so the failover isn't quite working.
I want to create a servlet that report whther the Tomcat it is running in if fully operational. Amongst other checks the servelt needs to know 1. That the server is not in the a startup, shutdown stage in it lifecycle. 2. That all of the webapps are running. Stage 1 can be achieved by a creating a LifecycleListener but 2 cannot. Can MBeans provide the ability to do both? If so how? I can find precious little docu on Tomcat's MBeans. Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Load-Balnce-and-failover-for-Tomcat-tp17207372p17207372.html Sent from the Tomcat - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
