Monitoring OneView Health

A health check can be performed on the OneView server instance.

We recommend that the check is performed regularly by requesting the following Health Check URL:

http[s]://<oneview-server>:<port>/api/oneview/healthcheck

The result is returned in JSON format and would for a successful request look as follows:

{
status: “OK”,
message: “”,
timestamp: “2016-01-08T16:12:04.557+0100”
}

The status attribute may hold the values ‘OK‘,  ‘WARNING‘ and ‘FAILURE‘.

In case of ‘WARNING‘ or ‘FAILURE‘, the message attribute will contain a human readable warning or error description.
