Hi, I really don't understand what you need. If your Rails app can't respond it is because there's some problem in your server (apache, db, etc). It's much better if you use a VIP in front of your infra and him will distribute the request. If anyone down, other take your place.
Just answer your question, you can create an healthcheck url. Then, another app (REST app) listen this and when your RAILS App come down, it make something (start a job; change a DNS, etc) Att Andre Fonseca -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
