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?
