Hi Bryn,
There are some information that I’ve put
at http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Monitoring to monitor XWiki
instances.
JavaMelody is quite great for that but it won’t send you alerts.
Make sure to check the tools at the end in the Others section too. There’s the xinit tool
which is a monitoring/admin tool developed by XWiki SAS.
Hope it helps,
-Vincent

Having made my XWiki site available to other users, I
was concerned to find that the site became unusable at one point with client connections
eventually timing out. I had no way to diagnose the problem, but eventually I managed to
make a (slow) SSH connection to the server and restarted Tomcat, and things seemed to
settle back to normal.
The problem is I have no real sense of what happened and how to prevent it happening
again. To that end, I'd appreciate any suggestions for monitoring the server and
diagnosing poor performance. What do others typically use? I have an Apache2 server
passing wiki page requests to Tomcat7 via an ajp connector, and a PostgreSQL database. My
guess is that Tomcat is doing most of the work here so that's probably what I need to
monitor the most.
