Marc Schöchlin commented on AMQ-2453:
-------------------------------------
Response to: Dirk de Kok :
---
- process should run like a daemon in the background
- process should do proper logging
- process should be available for status checks (e.g. via jmx)
- process should run like a specified user (e.g. activemq) and not root
- should use PID file
- should be possible to configure for automatic startup and shutdown
---
=> This is already supported by the attached init-script, but it would be
better to implement this directly in java
(and not by using system-properties and shell-tricks)
Additional comments:
* example directory layout (where binaries, config files, startup script)
=> just invoke the script without any parameters, you will see some
documentation
=> invoke the script with the setup option (./activemq status
/path/to/file) and you get a example configuration file
* clear definition of responsibilities of files (controlling process,
configuration, etc). Right now too much is in some files
=> i agree, this can be improved by implementing more functionality of
the script directly in activemq
* how to install for automatic startup/shutdown with the system (on linux
for me in particular)
=> this is already documented in the init-documentation of your linux-os
> start/control-script is not suitable for professional environments

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-2453
> Project: ActiveMQ
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Broker
> Affects Versions: 5.3.0
> Reporter: Marc Schöchlin
> Assignee: Rob Davies
> Fix For: 5.4.0
>
> Attachments: activemq, usage-example.txt
>
>
> The start-scripts "activemq" and "activemq-admin" do not seem to be ready for
> production use.
> Reasons:
> - Server does not run in background
> => this can be done by redirecting output to a file and run in background
> => in my opinion this should be implemented directly in java
> => the console log should be written by log4j to
> <install-root>/data/console.log
> - The process should be started on a non-root user
> => use 'su -c "$COMMAND" - $RUN_AS_USER'
> => this should be defined in /etc/activemq.conf
> - The script should support a "reload" feature to reload the configurartion
> (if activemq supports reloading)
> - The script should support a "status" option
> => this should show a quick overview about the state of activemq
> => this should return a value != 0 if the service is not working
> (this is important for cluster integration)
> Does anybody already working on these items?
> Do you have suggestions for a implementation?
