    Description

      Searching for what the non-SSO version of the diagnostics URL was not successful given the current wiki pages and confluence keywords.

      Step 1: Try search terms (result: only old or unrelated results)

      • grouper health check
      • grouper status endpoint
      • grouper healthcheck
      • grouper /status
      • grouper /grouper_status
      • grouper monitor (top result is "Grouper Book - Monitoring" from 2010)
      • grouper diagnostics (only mentions the sso-protected page, not the public one)

      Step 2: Look at the Grouper training copy/paste wiki for it (result: it only mentions the sso-protected version)

      Step 3: Dig up the Grouper training slides (result: a slide mentions it as https://localhost:8443/status_grouper/status?diagnosticType=all)

      Step 4: Search confluence for "status_grouper"

      Result:

      • only link is the container docs for v2.5 page
      • the text on that page does mention the (relative) url, and describes "The status path is good for monitoring (e.g. from nagios)"
      • yet this page doesn't come up when searching for combined keywords "grouper" "status" "monitoring"; the top link is "Grouper Book - Monitoring" from 2010. What is going on with Confluence keyword search??

      Recommendations:

      1) Create a separate page for Grouper health checks, OR add the public status page to Grouper diagnostics
      2) Improve keywords; "diagnostics" is not something that comes to mind when thinking of health checks
      3) Fix Confluence keyword indexing; I don't know, prioritize by date maybe?
