h3. Problem When using the Status API you can't see if the content app is online. Each instance of the pulp-content app should checkin into the database periodically with a heartbeat. h3. Solution The status API should should show the checking-in pulp-content instances that have checked in, within the last 30 seconds. A new constant should be made for that value. 30 is selected as the same default as the timeout for workers also. The new constant can be called CONTENT_APP_TTL = 30. h3. Design notes The checkin code needs to be coroutine based so the scheduler knows to wake it up near when it needs to. On the order of 30 seconds this should be ok. It should wake up every CONTENT_APP_TTL / 4.
