Overview

In order to make proper decisions as to whether one site should be made active over another, the ability for a particular site to process messaging needs to be ascertained.

Checking the health of a site

In order to manually check the health of a site, the operator can run the sdnc.monitor script from the Kubernetes master:

ubuntu@k8s-s2-master:~/oom/kubernetes/sdnc/resources/geo/bin$ ./sdnc.monitor
healthy
ubuntu@k8s-s2-master:~/oom/kubernetes/sdnc/resources/geo/bin$

This version of the script utilizes kubectl to remotely access the PROM pod in order to run the sdnc.monitor script that performs the health checks.

Alternatively, the sdnc.monitor script available in the PROM pod can be run directly:

root@dev-prom-6485f566fb-hdhzs:/path/to/scripts# ./sdnc.monitor
healthy
root@dev-prom-6485f566fb-hdhzs:/path/to/scripts#
