Instead it allows +to retrieve status and configuration information at runtime, +and furthermore to change many configuration items dynamically. This can be done +via a simple embedded web interface. +</p> +<p> +The status worker is especially powerful, when used together with load balancing workers. +</p> +<p> +This document does not explain the HTML user interface of the status worker. +Until now it is very simple, so just go ahead and use it. This doc instead +tries to explain the less obvious features of the status worker. We also will give a +complete coverage of the various request parameters and their meaning, so that you can +include the status worker in your automation scripts. +</p> +<p> +The documentation of the status worker starts with <b>jk 1.2.20</b> +</p> +</section> + +<section name="Usage Patterns"> +<br/> +<subsection name="Actions"> +<br/> +<p> +The status worker knows about six actions. +<ul> +<li> +<b>list</b>: lists the configurations and runtime information of all configured workers. +The output will be grouped by global information first (version data), then load balancer +information, after that AJP worker information and finally the legend. For load balancers, +there will be a summary part, and after that details for each member worker. For all workers, +we also include the URL mappings (forward definitions). +</li> +<li> +<b>show</b>: the same as list, but only shows data for one chosen worker +</li> +<li> +<b>edit</b>: produces a form to edit configuration data for a chosen worker. There is a +special subtype of "edit", that makes it easy to change one attribute for all members of +a load balancer, e.g. their activation state. +</li> +<li> +<b>update</b>: commit changes made in an edit form. <b>Caution</b>: the changes will not be +persisted to the configuration files. As soon as your restart your web server, all changes +made through the status worker will be lost! On the other hand, the changes done by the status +worker will be applied during runtime without a restart of the web server. +</li> +<li> +<b>reset</b>: reset all runtime statistics for a worker. +</li> +<li> +<b>recover</b>: Mark a member of a load balancer, that is in error state, for immediate recovery. +</li> +<li> +<b>version</b>: only show version information of the web server and the JK software +</li> +<li> +<b>dump</b>: list the original workers configuration. <b>Caution</b>: the dump will only contain +the configuration that was used during startup. Any changes applied later by the dynamic management +interface of the status worker itself will not be contained in this dump. +The dump action has been added in version 1.2.27. +</li> +</ul> +</p> +</subsection> + +<subsection name="Output Format"> +<br/> +<p> +For most actions you can choose between 4 output formats. +<ul> +<li> +<b>HTML</b>: Used interactively with a browser +</li> +<li> +<b>XML</b>: Mostly useful for automation, when your scripting environment is XML friendly. +This format has rich structure information, but does not work line based, so you would really +like to use it together with XML tools. +</li> +<li> +<b>Properties</b>: This format is a line based format, that conforms to the rules of Java +property files. Most structure information is contained in the hierarchical key. For information, +that is of configuration nature, the format should produce lines very similar to the ones you can +use in workers.properties. It will not produce a complete configuration file! +</li> +<li> +<b>Text</b>: A simple textual output format. +</li> +</ul> +The "edit" action does only make sense for the HTML output type. +</p> +</subsection> + +<subsection name="User Interface Features"> +<br/> +<p> +In the HTML view, there is an <b>automatic refresh</b> feature, implemented via the meta refresh +option of HTML. Once you start the automatic refresh, the UI will will respect it for all actions +except edit, update and maintain. Even if you navigate through one of those, the automatic refresh +will start again as soon as you come back to one of the other actions. +</p> +<p> +Many parts of the HTML page can be minimised, if they are not interesting for you. There are a couple +of "Hide" links, which will collapse parts of the information. The feature exists for the following +blocks of information: +<ul> +<li> +<b>Legend</b>: Do not show the legend for the information presented in "list" and "show" actions +</li> +<li> +<b>URI mappings</b>: Do not show the URI mapping for the workers +</li> +<li> +<b>Load Balancing Workers</b>: Do not show workers of type "lb" +</li> +<li> +<b>AJP Workers</b>: Do not show workers of type ajp +</li> +<li> +<b>Balancer Members</b>: Do not show detailed information concerning each member of load balancers +</li> +<li> +<b>Load Balancer Configuration</b>: Do not show configuration data for load balancers +</li> +<li> +<b>Load Balancer Summary</b>: Do not show status summary for load balancers +</li> +<li> +<b>AJP Configuration</b>: Do not show configuration data for ajp workers load balancer members +</li> +</ul> +The last three minimisation features have been added in version 1.2.27. +</p> +</subsection> + +<subsection name="Special Considerations concerning URL Maps and Virtual Hosts"> +<br/> +<p> +<b>Note: </b>The following restriction has been removed starting with version 1.2.26. +</p> +<p> +The Apache module mod_jk makes use of the internal Apache httpd infrastructure concerning +virtual hosts. The downside of this is, that the status worker can only show URL maps, for +the virtual host it is defined in. It is not able to reach the configuration objects +for other virtual hosts. Of course you can define a status worker in any virtual host you +are using. All information presented apart from the URL maps will be the same, independent +of the virtual host the status worker has been called in. +</p> +</subsection> + +<subsection name="Logging"> +<br/> +<p> +The status worker will log changes made to the configuration with log level "info" to the usual +JK log file. Invalid requests will be logged with log level "warn". If you want to report some +broken behaviour, log file content of level "debug" or even "trace" will be useful. +</p> +</subsection> + +</section> + +<section name="Configuration"> +<br/> +<subsection name="Basic Configuration"> +<br/> +<p> +The basic configuration of a status worker is very similar to that of a usual ajp worker. +You need to specify a name for the worker, and the URLs you want to map to it. The first +part of the configuration happens in the workers.properties file. We define a worker named +mystatus of type status: +<source> +worker.list=mystatus +worker.mystatus.type=status +</source> +Then we define a URL, which should be mapped to this worker, i.e. the URL we use +to reach the functionality of the status worker. You can use any method mod_jk supports +for the web server of your choice. Possibilities are maps inside uriworkermap.properties, +an additional mount attribute in workers.properties, or in Apache JkMount. Here's an +example for a uriworkermap.properties line: +<source> +/private/admin/mystatus=mystatus +</source> +The URI pattern is case sensitive. +</p> +<p> +As you will learn in the following sections, the status worker is very powerful. You should +use the usual authentication and authorisation methods of your web server to secure this URL. +</p> +<p> +You can also define multiple instances of the status worker, by using different names and URL mappings. +For instance you might want to configure them individually +and then allow special groups of people to use them +</p> +</subsection> + +<subsection name="Output Customisation"> +<br/> +<p> +There are a couple of attributes for the workers.properties entries, which allow to customise +various aspects of the output of the status worker. +</p> +<p> +The attribute <b>css</b> can be set to the URL of a stylesheet: +<source> +worker.mystatus.css=/private/admin/static/mystatus.css +</source> +When writing HTML output, the status worker then includes the line +<source> +<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/private/admin/static/mystatus.css" /> +</source> +There is no sample stylesheet included with the mod_jk release, and by default the attribute css +is empty, so no stylesheet reference will be included in the pages. The HTML code +of the status worker output pages does not include any class attributes. If you like to contribute a +stylesheet or improvements to the HTML layout, please contact us on the tomcat developers list. +</p> +<p> +The properties output format can be customised via the attribute <b>prefix</b>. The names of all +properties the status worker does output, will begin with this prefix. The default is "worker". +</p> +<p> +Several attributes influence the format when writing XML output. +The attribute <b>ns</b> allows to set a namespace prefix, that will be used for every status worker+element. +The default is "jk:". Setting it to "-" disables the namespace prefix. +</p> +<p> +With the attribute xmlns you can map the prefix to a namespace URL. The default value +is xmlns:jk="http://tomcat.apache.org". Setting it to "-" disables the output of the URL. +</p> +<p> +Finally you can specify an XML document type via the attribute doctype. The specified string will +be inserted at the beginning of the document, directly after the xml header. The default is empty. +</p> +</subsection> + +<subsection name="Securing Access"> +<br/> +<p> +We urge you to use the builtin access control features of your web server to control +access to the status worker URLs you have chosen. Nevertheless two configuration +attributes of status workers are helpful. The attribute "read_only" disables all features of +the status worker, that can be used to change configurations or runtime status of the other workers. +A read_only status worker will not allow access to the edit, update, reset or recover actions. +The default value is "False", ie. read/write. To enable read_only you need to set it to "True". +</p> +<p> +You could configure two status workers, one has read_only and will be made available to a larger +admin group, the other one will be used fully featured, but only by fewer people: +<source> +worker.list=jk-watch +worker.jk-watch.type=status +worker.jk-watch.read_only=True +worker.jk-watch.mount=/user/status/jk +worker.list=jk-manage +worker.jk-manage.type=status +worker.jk-manage.mount=/admin/status/jk +</source> +Starting with version 1.2.21, a read/write status worker can also be switched temporarily +into read-only mode by the user via a link in the HTML GUI. The user can always switch it +back to read/write. Only a status worker configured as read-only via the "read_only" attribute +is completely safe from applying any changes. +</p> +<p> +The other attribute you can use is <b>user</b>. By default this list is empty, which means +no limit on the users. You can set "user" to a comma separated list of user names. If your +web server is configured such that it sends the user names with the request, the status worker +will check, if the name attached with the request is contained in it's "user" list. +</p> +<p> +The user list can be split over multiple occurrences of the "user" attribute. +</p> +<p> +By default, the user names are matched case sensitively. Starting with version 1.2.21 you can set +the attribute <b>user_case_insensitive</b> to "True". Then the comparison will be made case insensitive. +</p> +</subsection> + +<subsection name="Service Availability Rating"> +<br/> +<p> +For load balancing workers the status worker shows some interesting overview information. +It categorises the members of the load balancer into the classes "good", "bad" and degraded". +This feature can be combined with external escalation procedures. Depending on your global +system design and your operating practises your preferred categorisation might vary. +</p> +<p> +The categorisation is based on the activation state of the workers (active, disabled or stopped), +which is a pure configuration state, and the runtime state +(OK or ERR with possible substates idle, busy, recovering, probing, and forced recovery) +which only depends on the runtime situation. +</p> +<p> +The runtime substates have the following meaning: +<ul> +<li> +<b>OK (idle)</b>: This worker didn't receive any request since the last balancer +maintenance. By default balancer maintenance runs every 60 seconds. The +worker should be OK, but since we didn't have to use it for some time, we +can't be sure. This state has been called N/A before version 1.2.24. +</li> +<li> +<b>OK (busy)</b>: All connections for this worker are in use for requests. +</li> +<li> +<b>ERROR (recovering)</b>: The worker was in error state for some time and is now +marked for recovery. The next request suitable for this worker will use it. +</li> +<li> +<b>ERROR (probing)</b>: After setting the worker to recovering, we received a request +suitable for this worker. This request is now using the worker. +</li> +<li> +<b>ERROR (forced recovery)</b>: The worker is in error, but we don't have an alternative +worker, so we keep using it. +</li> +</ul> +</p> +<p> +By default the status worker groups into "good" all members, that have activation "active" and +runtime state not equal to "error" with empty substate. +The "bad" group consists of the members, that have either activation +"stopped", or are in runtime state "error" with empty substate. +</p> +<p> +Workers that fit neither of the two groups, are considered to be "degraded". +</p> +<p> +You can define other rules for the grouping into good, bad and degraded. +The two attributes "good" and "bad" can be populated by a comma-separated list ob single characters or +dot-separated pairs. Each character stands for the first character of one of the possible states "active", +"disabled", "stopped", "ok", "idle", "busy", "recovering" and "error". The additional states "probing" +and "forced recovery" are always rated equivalent to "recovering". +Comma-separated entries will be combined +with logical "or", if you combine a configuration and a runtime state with a dot. the are combined with logical +"and". So the default value for "good" is "a.o,a.i,a.b,a.r", for "bad" it is "e,s". +</p> +<p> +The status worker first tries to match against the "bad" definitions, if this doesn't succeed +it tries to match against "good", and finally it chooses "degraded", if no "bad" or "good" match +can be found. +</p> +</subsection> +</section> + +<section name="Request Parameters"> +<br/> +<p> +This section should help you building automation scripts based on the jk status +management interface. This interface is stable in the sense, that we only expect +to add further parameters in the future. Existing parameters from previous versions +will keep their original semantics. We also expect the output formats XML, Properties +and Text to be kept stable. So please use those, if you want to parse status worker +output in your automation scripts. +</p> +<subsection name="Actions"> +<br/> +<p> +The action is determined by the parameter <b>cmd</b>.
