api /sys/health - HTTP API <tt>/sys/health</tt> api-http-system-health The `/sys/health` endpoint is used to check the health status of Vault.

/sys/health

The /sys/health endpoint is used to check the health status of Vault.

Read Health Information

This endpoint returns the health status of Vault. This matches the semantics of a Consul HTTP health check and provides a simple way to monitor the health of a Vault instance.

Method Path Produces
HEAD /sys/health 000 (empty body)
GET /sys/health 000 application/json

The default status codes are:

  • 200 if initialized, unsealed, and active
  • 429 if unsealed and standby
  • 472 if data recovery mode replication secondary and active
  • 473 if performance standby
  • 501 if not initialized
  • 503 if sealed

Parameters

  • standbyok (bool: false) Specifies if being a standby should still return the active status code instead of the standby status code. This is useful when Vault is behind a non-configurable load balance that just wants a 200-level response.

  • activecode (int: 200)  Specifies the status code that should be returned for an active node.

  • standbycode (int: 429) Specifies the status code that should be returned for a standby node.

  • drsecondarycode (int: 472) Specifies the status code that should be returned for a DR secondary node.

  • performancestandbycode (int: 473) Specifies the status code that should be returned for a performance standby node.

  • sealedcode (int: 503) Specifies the status code that should be returned for a sealed node.

  • uninitcode (int: 501) Specifies the status code that should be returned for a uninitialized node.

Sample Request

$ curl \
    http://127.0.0.1:8200/v1/sys/health

Sample Response

This response is only returned for a GET request.

Note: replication_perf_mode and replication_dr_mode reflect the state of the active node in the cluster; if you are querying it for a standby that has just come up, it can take a small time for the active node to inform the standby of its status.
