Re: Script to check if solr is running

I could write a script, too, though I’d do it with straight shell code. But then I’d have to test it, check it in somewhere, document it for ops, install it, ... Instead, when we switch from monit, I'll start with one of these systemd configs. https://gist.github.com/hammady/3d7b5964c7b0f90997

Re: Script to check if solr is running

A simple Perl script would be able to cover this, I have a cron job Perl script that does a search with an expected result, if the result isn’t there it fails over to a backup search server, sends me an email, and I fix what’s wrong. The backup search server is a direct clone of the live server

Re: Script to check if solr is running

Use the solution described by Walter. This allows you to automatically restart in case of failure and is also cleaner than defining a cronjob. Otherwise This would be another dependency one needs to keep in mind - means if there is an issue and someone does not know the system the person has to

Re: Script to check if solr is running

Fixing the root cause would certainly be the best thing.However if you still wanna tread that path, you can do a healthchek on admin endpoint and do the thing. A simple cron job would do trick On Thu, 4 Jun 2020 at 10:09 PM, Ryan W wrote: > Or is it not much overhead to give the command to start

Re: Script to check if solr is running

Or is it not much overhead to give the command to start solr if it is already running? Maybe it's not necessary to check if it's running? Is there any downside to giving the start command every 15 minutes or so whether it is running or not? Thanks. On Thu, Jun 4, 2020 at 12:36 PM Ryan W wrote:
