Run UM on system start

Windows

If you are using a manually installed Apache Tomcat it usually comes with its own Windows service wrapper. If you are using the embedded Tomcat we recommend NSSM as a service wrapper (https://nssm.cc).

Linux

The easiest way ist to start the UM via crontab:

@reboot bash -lc startup.sh

In order for “startup.sh” to work we recommend adding UM/scripts to your PATH environment variable.

Monitoring

There are two standard endpoints which can be used in every common monitoring tool.

  • /cmsbs/status.jsp
    Return code 202 confirms both UM and database are OK

  • https://www.yourwebsite.com/p/de.pinuts.cmsbs.lib.plugin.Application/status
    Return code 202 confirms that your UM REST Proxy is alive and correctly configured and both UM and database are OK.
