UpTimeRobot is certainly the best free monitoring tool, with some possibilities others don't give. But the free version has an inconvenient. You can only check every 5 mins and when the instances restart it takes more than 5 mins each. So everyday I get a down an up alerts for each. I have switched to montastic.com. I was wondering if we don't want to share that here. We could then have these alerts here and any committer, using the info in https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ofbiz/tools/demo-backup could handle issues. It seems better, isn'it? Jacques |

Hi,
Should I consider no answers as a lazy consensus and should I send (rare) alerts to this ML? Without any answers I'll consider it a lazy consensus in 2 days.

I prefer not to include any tools without proper analysis and
discussion first. Less is more.

So you prefer that I'm the only one to take care of the demos and act on alerts?

Well, we can ask Infra for help, we can check available solutions, we
can create a CRON script that checks things periodically, there are multiple ways to go about this. My personal preference is for a simple CRON script that takes care of this.

I'm not sure why you're hanging this on me, but sure I'm willing to
help. Can I get some information on how the crashes are happening and how you're getting notified, and I will take it from there.

It is just one of those requirements where dedicated tools best fit in; otherwise a CRON script can do the same as well. Not sure why using a tool is not the preferred way to go here.

I think after a crash it's mostly to use dumps there (we have several from the recent pas) but I'm not sure they will help, and it takes time to analyse. In the past I took the time to analyse some of them and it was interesting. For instance in 2010 I found a bug in a Java version we were using and it helped me in a custom project I was also doing then: https://markmail.org/message/byu2ivjn7wckayzz Lastly it was mostly lack of memory, despite having 8GB now. I created https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-16780 for that, but not sure it was the reason. At least we have less issues since. Before (months ago) the Infra was monitoring our demos and alerting us by mail (you just had to subscribe). Unfortunately we are on our own for that now, too much projects in the ASF... As as I said initially in this thread I'm currently using montastic.com for the email alerts. My idea when I started this thread was that it all depends on me, and that's bad. So I wanted people to be aware, you are much welcome.

I had earlier replied to this thread but looks like the email did not go
through. I had leaned towards using the tool (only just) instead of may be having a CRON job or an alternative. What I feel now is that may be we can use JMX here and try to use various in build MBeans that provide CPU usage for the system and also for the JVM process we are concerned about that is OFBiz instance. We should also be able to get the memory usage of the JVM and if reaches a particular threshold we can be notified. In addition, I think we already add a shutdown hook to the JVM process... I am not sure and have not used it much but may be we can use it to send some notifications? Of course, it is applicable for graceful exits of JVM only and if you just happen to kill the process it won't be of much help. Hope it makes sense and correct me if I am wrong.

I see mixed topics about JMX, Mbeans, Memory monitors and shutdown hooks. First this seems to be more like coding than a tool, and second I have no idea how you want to implement this? My idea for example is simple: create a cronjob that checks the system periodically and if the demo process stopped, restart it (or maybe rebuild and restart). To go with your suggestion we need to perhaps first understand it. > > Best regards, > Girish Vasmatkar > HotWax Systems > > > On Thu, Aug 23, 2018 at 8:48 PM Jacques Le Roux < > [hidden email]> wrote: > > > Le 23/08/2018 à 14:04, Taher Alkhateeb a écrit : > > > I'm not sure why you're hanging this on me, > > Because you answered to the bait ;) > > > > > but sure I'm willing to > > > help. > > Thanks, much appreciated! > > > > > Can I get some information on how the crashes are happening and > > > how you're getting notified, and I will take it from there. > > I think after a crash it's mostly to use dumps there (we have several > from > > the recent pas) but I'm not sure they will help, and it takes time to > > analyse. > > > > In the past I took the time to analyse some of them and it was > > interesting.

Per my understanding, shutdown hook gets called whenever JVM shuts down gracefully. Graceful word is very important here because we won't be able to do much if someone just kills the process. The only thing a shutdown hook will add to this is that we will be notified then and there. > > > > > Hope it makes sense and correct me if I am wrong. > > Well I'm struggling a bit.

My idea was that to have a timer service run within the JVM and it access various MBeans for the CPU usage and Memory usages just for our monitoring purpose and raise an alert if it reaches a threshold. It was just to have a glance over how JVM is performing. The disadvantage? The service will run in OFBiz JVM and there will be considerable amount of coding involved. > > My idea for example is simple: create a cronjob that checks the system > periodically and if the demo process stopped, restart it (or maybe rebuild > and restart).

The only reason why I introduced MBeans in the mix was to be able to sort of having OFBiz monitor itself within it's realm, hence use of MBeans. I believe a CRON will be able to do it as well. I probably did not get that we probably want something that take some action after the JVM has crashed and not having something that monitors the process and alerts concerned parties that the process is occupying more than say 2 GB or it's CPU usage has spiked above 80%. All in all, I feel we should choose the solution based on what we want to do and whether we want to take it further as well. I do not know what the tool does now or whether it can build the system again and restart it automatically. I also do not know what measures we take in such an event. I agree CRON will be simplest of them all, but if the tool provides all of these (be able to take corrective measures) and not just send notifications, then it can also be worth it's salt. Yes, CRON will be more technical way of achieving :) Thanks and Best regards, Girish Vasmatkar HotWax Systems > > > > > Best regards, > > Girish Vasmatkar > > HotWax Systems > > > > > > On Thu, Aug 23, 2018 at 8:48 PM Jacques Le Roux < > > [hidden email]> wrote: > > > > > Le 23/08/2018 à 14:04, Taher Alkhateeb a écrit : > > > > I'm not sure why you're hanging this on me, > > > Because you answered to the bait ;) > > > > > > > but sure I'm willing to > > > > help. > > > Thanks, much appreciated! > > > > > > > Can I get some information on how the crashes are happening and > > > > how you're getting notified, and I will take it from there. > > > I think after a crash it's mostly to use dumps there (we have several > > from > > > the recent pas) but I'm not sure they will help, and it takes time to > > > analyse. > > > > > > In the past I took the time to analyse some of them and it was > > > interesting.

Okay all neat ideas, I'm not sure if the energy you will put into something
like this is equal to the value produced but if you want to make this happen I would be happy to assist. How much time will it take to make something like this happen? I ask because it seems Jacques ia getting annoyed with these crashes and we'd like to help him out.

We are monitoring our OFBiz instances with JMX and self hosted Zabbix [1].
Zabbix gives you a nice overview about the system health and metrics like memory consumption etc. It also sends out warnings (Email, SMS or else) if metrics are exceeded (like CPU load or memory consumption) as well as the system is not accessible. Looks like this: [2] There is no programming needed, just some configuration for JMX and Zabbix. [1] https://www.zabbix.com/ [2] https://www.ecomify.de/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/Zabbix_Monitoring.png If we want to see why the demos crash, it might be useful. If we only want to monitor if the system is up, a simple cron job which sends a mail might be enough...

I may be mistaken, but it seems to me that a lot of functions of OS
monitoring tools (think Nagios, Munin, and more commercial products like DataDog) cover several aspects mentioning in this thread and some of the features therein are to be replicated into the OFBiz solution. If that is the case I expect a lot work (and a lengthy implementation track) to be required with minimal added value to adopters.

There is no need to implement anything in OFBiz to monitor it's metrics
or the underlying OS. For the metrics, we can simply use JMX and the OS metrics can be retrieved by onboard tools or additional tools on the server. I would be in favor of not using any third party tools from outside which collect data like Jacques has already setup. We should use tools running on the server itself or running on other ASF servers.

Speaking of monitoring tools and if we don't want to go for third party
tools, we can also use VisualVM that comes bundled with Oracle JDK. It can connect to the remote VM (OFBiz process) and start displaying various information. Very minimal configuration is needed in the form of VM argument to allow for remote monitoring. Also, to enable further analysis of what went wrong, why JVM crashed etc, we should also dump heap as the JVM shuts down. Too many ways and too many options. Probably need to reach a unanimous decision, IMO.
