Web interface for managing Tomcat services

Question

I have tons of tomcat servers, they are all in a virtual machine. At the moment there is a need to develop a web panel, where I can track the statuses of servers, change their configurations, stop and restart. Actually the question itself: with what technologies can I do this. Previously, there was an idea to use the playbook ansible. How can I at least display the names of my servers on the page?

Answer 1

There are two standard ways to monitor Tomcat:

• you can use Tomcat Manager, especially its text interface,
• you can use JMX directly or through the JMX Proxy Servlet. On Tomcat's webpage you can find a not so up-to-date list of MBeans. For some MBeans you'll have to fire up jconsole and explore the names yourself.
