Monitoring Manifold CF

Hello

We are using Manifold CF to index Solr, via an Oracle connection. Our job
is currently scheduled to run every evening, but we have had a few failed
jobs.

Ideally, we would like to use a tool such as Nagios to monitor the logs (or
something else) and report on the success/failure of the job. We are
struggling to find any output in the logs which would indicate the status
of a job.

Has anyone else put this sort of monitoring in place? Any advice would be
much appreciated.

Many thanks

Christian

Hello Christian,

Further to Karl's message, see API at:
http://manifoldcf.apache.org/release/release-1.0.1/en_US/programmatic-operation.html#Control+by+Servlet+API

Assuming it is using the apache-manifoldcf-1.0.1 puppeted version.

Hi,

The REST API can give you the job status.
