Solr exposes statistics through JMX: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrJmx As described there, you can examine them using jconsole. Nagios also has several JMX plugins, of which we have successfully used http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Plugins/Java-Applications-and-Servers/Syabru-Nagios-JMX-Plugin/details There are also several open-source JMX clients available, but we did not find any actively-maintained one with the features that we would have liked. We have prototyped an in-house JMX application, focused on Solr, and hope to be able to open-source this soon. > The other option I found is LiquidGaze, it says it > is an open source solution for monitoring the handlers and can do a lot > of what I need but has anyone ever used it before and can give it a > rating, good or bad. [...] I presume that you mean LucidGaze. We have been meaning to check it out, but the person implementing it was running into some issues. Regards, Gora
