Well, you can request the WSDL: http://example.org:8080/my-web-app-war/services/MyService?wsdl This ensures that the webserver is alive, the war file has deployed to it successfully, and the servlet is responding to incoming HTTP requests without throwing an exception. So I guess it fills the role of a basic ping pretty well. Andrew.
