Verifying that an instance is running

Verifying that a Pega Platform instance is running

You can verify whether a Pega Platform instance is up and running by entering the following URL:

http://<<hostName:port/contextName>>/PRRestService/monitor/pingservice/ping.

The Pega Platform Engine responds with HTTP Response Code 200 if the instance is available. The response contains JSON text in the format { "duration":"<time in milliseconds>" }. Any other response codes or timeout indicate that the instance is unavailable.
