-Arvados services support endpoints for monitoring the status of a cluster.
+Health check endpoints are found at @/_health/ping@ on many Arvados services.  The purpose of the health check is to offer a simple method of determining if a service can be reached and allow the service to self-report any problems, suitable for integrating into operational alert systems.
 
-Health check endpoints are found at @/_health/ping@ for many Arvados services.
+To access health check endpoints, services must be configured with a "management token":management-token.html .
 
-Services must have ManagementToken configured.  This is used to authorize access to the health check endpoint.  If ManagementToken is not configured, health checks will return the error @404 disabled@.
-
-The requester must provide the HTTP header @Authorization: Bearer (ManagementToken)@.
-
-This endpoint returns a JSON object with the field @health@.  This has a value of either @OK@ or @ERROR@.  On error, it may also include a  field @error@ with additional information.

+Health check endpoints return a JSON object with the field @health@.  This has a value of either @OK@ or @ERROR@.  On error, it may also include a  field @error@ with additional information.  Examples:
 
 <pre>
-  # Token to be included in all healthcheck requests. Disabled by default.
-  # Server expects request header of the format "Authorization: Bearer xxx"
-  ManagementToken: ...

+  "health": "OK"

 h2. Healthcheck aggregator
 
 The service @arvados-health@ performs health checks on all configured services and returns a single value of @OK@ or @ERROR@ for the entire cluster.  It exposes the endpoint @/_health/all@ .
 
-The healthcheck aggregator uses the "NodeProfile" section of the cluster-wide configuration file.  Here is an example.
-
-<pre>
-Cluster:
-  # The cluster uuid prefix
-  zzzzz:
-    NodeProfile:
-      # For each node, the profile name corresponds to a
-      # locally-resolvable hostname, and describes which Arvados
-      # services are available on that machine.
-      api:
-        arvados-controller:
-          Listen: 8000
-        arvados-api-server:
-          Listen: 8001
-      manage:
-	arvados-node-manager:
-	  Listen: 8002

-	arvados-workbench:

-	  Listen: 25701
-      keep1:
-        keepstore:

-</pre>
+The healthcheck aggregator uses the @Services@ section of the cluster-wide @config.yml@ configuration file.
