Configure "/server-status" page for IBM HTTP server
In order to monitor an IBM HTTP server in Applications Manager, the
'/server-status' page must be configured on the target IBM HTTP
server that needs to be monitored. This can be accomplished by following
these steps:
Step 1 - Enable the "mod_status.co" module in the Target IBM HTTP server
Navigate to <IBM_HOME>/HTTPServer/conf/httpd.conf file and uncomment the following line:
- LoadModule status_module modules/mod_status.so
Step 2 - Add/Modify the access handler for "/server-status" page
Add the following lines to the configuration file, and if it is already present, modify it according to the context given below:
- <Location /server-status>
SetHandler server-status
Require all granted
</Location>
Note
that making the above changes will open the "/server-status" handler
without any restriction. To restrict the access to Applications
manager alone, make the following changes to the configuration file:
<Location /server-status>
SetHandler server-status
Require host <hostname_of_apm_installed_machine>
Require ip <ip_of_apm_installed_machine>
</Location>
Step 3 - Enable Extended Status
Enabling ExtendedStatus is mandatory for monitoring metrics like
Request per second, bytes per second, bytes per request etc. If the
ExtendedStatus is not enabled, then follow the steps below to enable
the extended status.
- Locate the line starting with ExtendedStatus in the configuration file.
- Uncomment the line and set the status "On".
Step 4 - Restart the server
Restart
the target IBM HTTP server after performing the above mentioned
steps and check if the below URL is accessible from Applications Manager
installed machine.
