Other cool options: Zabbix collects from many things include Solr JVM JMX beans, which is what the solr/admin/stats.jsp page fetches. Zabbix fetches, archives, graphs and alerts. We could not find another monitor that did all of these well.
NewRelic is a hosted service for Solr and a lot of other things. It is a JVM bolt-on which sends to NewRelic- there is zero configuration. We use both for monitoring in our LucidWorks for Cloud service. Zabbix is our workhorse. NewRelic is just internal eye candy: it looks great on a big monitor in the office and mesmerizes our managers :) On Sat, Apr 14, 2012 at 10:58 AM, Jamie Johnson <jej2...@gmail.com> wrote: > ah, one last piece, and if you're not some how alert an admin about > it, perhaps through email or something.
