Here are key places in the Grouper documentation and training with information on operational considerations:
Tools and topics for ongoing administration provides a reference for a variety of operational tasks as does ongoing administration tasks . video also goes into further details on common operational tasks. Depending on your needs you may want to consider various deployment architectures highlighted in . and provide capabilities for monitoring the health of your deployment.tipYou can monitor the health of the Grouper using the Grouper diagnostics URLs at http://{hostname}/grouper/status?diagnosticType=[trivial|db|all] for the Grouper UI, and http://{hostname}/grouperWS/status?diagnosticType=[trivial|db|all] for Grouper WS. If everything is ok, a 200 HTTP code will be returned, otherwise a 500 is returned with a description of the issue. The diagnostic URL has many options and is suitable for monitoring by systems like Nagios, Big Brother, etc. If you do not see the word SUCCESS on the “all” page, then something is wrong. Have monitoring tools like Nagios look for SUCCESS.
