[jira] [Commented] (BROOKLYN-82) REST api should have unauthenticated health-check call

["Aled Sage (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BROOKLYN-82?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14194544#comment-14194544 ] 

Aled Sage commented on BROOKLYN-82:
-----------------------------------

>From the customer who originally requested this, feedback on Alex's suggestion is "this is a good idea".

Therefore the code-change required is just to add `Entitlements.serverStatusOnly()` , which would allow `/server/ha/state` and `/server/ha/states`. (The latter is more contentious, but is viewed as very useful for monitoring tools. We expect the user to have similar entitlements for the standby servers - otherwise things would become inaccessible after a failover!).

> The Brooklyn REST api should include a simple call for heartbeat monitoring (e.g. by Nagios). This should not require authentication, and be light-weight so it can be easily integrated into the customer's choice of monitoring tool.
