# Apache Tomcat monitoring with Netdata Presents memory utilization of tomcat containers. Charts: 1. **Requests** per second - accesses 2. **Volume** in KB/s - volume 3. **Threads** - current - busy 4. **JVM Free Memory** in MB - jvm ## Configuration Edit the `python.d/tomcat.conf` configuration file using `edit-config` from the Netdata [config directory](/docs/configure/nodes.md), which is typically at `/etc/netdata`. ```bash cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different sudo ./edit-config python.d/tomcat.conf ``` ```yaml localhost: name : 'local' url : 'http://127.0.0.1:8080/manager/status?XML=true' user : 'tomcat_username' pass : 'secret_tomcat_password' ``` Without configuration, module attempts to connect to `http://localhost:8080/manager/status?XML=true`, without any credentials. So it will probably fail. --- [![analytics](https://www.google-analytics.com/collect?v=1&aip=1&t=pageview&_s=1&ds=github&dr=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fnetdata%2Fnetdata&dl=https%3A%2F%2Fmy-netdata.io%2Fgithub%2Fcollectors%2Fpython.d.plugin%2Ftomcat%2FREADME&_u=MAC~&cid=5792dfd7-8dc4-476b-af31-da2fdb9f93d2&tid=UA-64295674-3)](<>)
