Learning Linux - Make your servers more resilient with monit
Sometimes server services stop, crash, or hang and you can't be around 24/7 to monitor them, but monit can. Hence the name.
With monit you can setup a watchdog service to monitor the goings on of your Linux system and customize the reaction to each individual monitored service, file, port, etc. From logging it, to restarting it, to notifying you or all the above, monit can do it.
The article's instructions are geared towards Debian, but OpenSUSE users can install very simply by typing the following in a root shell.
zypper in monit
Enjoy.
