Kopere Status (local_kopere_status)

A Status page for your Moodle: shows whether the platform is online, for how long, for how many consecutive days, and provides a public status page to share with your team and users.

Note on CRON For reliable measurements, configure Moodle’s CRON to run at an interval less than or equal to the check interval set in the plugin. Example: if the check runs every 5 minutes and CRON runs every 10 minutes, about 50% of checks will fail (missed windows). Ideally, run CRON every 1 minute.

Features

• Moodle availability monitoring.
• Continuous uptime counter and consecutive days online.
• History of checks and downtime periods.
• Public status page (open read access) to communicate uptime transparently.

crontab example (Linux only):

* * * * * /usr/bin/php /var/www/html/moodle/admin/cli/cron.php >/dev/null 2>&1

• Public page: open-read URL (no login) to share with your community.

Tip: Include the public status link in the site footer or in the support area.

Best practices & tips

• CRON must not be less frequent than the check interval: keep CRON ≤ the check (e.g., check every 5 min → CRON 1–5 min).
• Synchronize time zone and server time to avoid window discrepancies.
• In proxy/CDN environments, ensure the check hits the correct endpoint (apply a WAF allowlist if needed).
