##
## Start monit in background (run as daemon) and check the services at 2-minute
## intervals.
#
set daemon 60
#
#
## Set syslog logging with the 'daemon' facility. If the FACILITY option is
## omited, monit will use 'user' facility by default. You can specify the
## path to the file for monit native logging.
#
set logfile /var/log/monit
#
#
## Set list of mailservers for alert delivery. Multiple servers may be
## specified using comma separator. By default monit uses port 25 - it is
## possible to override it with the PORT option.
#
# set mailserver mail.bar.baz, # primary mailserver
# backup.bar.baz port 10025, # backup mailserver on port 10025
# localhost # fallback relay
#
#
## By default monit will drop the event alert, in the case that there is no
## mailserver available. In the case that you want to keep the events for
## later delivery retry, you can use the EVENTQUEUE statement. The base
## directory where undelivered events will be stored is specified by the
## BASEDIR option. You can limit the maximal queue size using the SLOTS
## option (if omited then the queue is limited just by the backend filesystem).
#
# set eventqueue
# basedir /var/monit # set the base directory where events will be stored
# slots 100 # optionaly limit the queue size
#
#
## Monit by default uses the following alert mail format:
##
## --8<--
## From: monit@$HOST # sender
## Subject: monit alert -- $EVENT $SERVICE # subject
##
## $EVENT Service $SERVICE #
## #
## Date: $DATE #
## Action: $ACTION #
## Host: $HOST # body
## Description: $DESCRIPTION #
## #
## Your faithful employee, #
## monit #
## --8<--
##
## You can override the alert message format or its parts such as subject
## or sender using the MAIL-FORMAT statement. Macros such as $DATE, etc.
## are expanded on runtime. For example to override the sender:
#
# set mail-format { from: monit@foo.bar }
#
#
## You can set the alert recipients here, which will receive the alert for
## each service. The event alerts may be restricted using the list.
#
# set alert sysadm@foo.bar # receive all alerts
# set alert manager@foo.bar only on { timeout } # receive just service-
# # timeout alert
#
#
## Monit has an embedded webserver, which can be used to view the
## configuration, actual services parameters or manage the services using the
## web interface.
#
set httpd port 2812 and allow admin:monit
# use address localhost # only accept connection from localhost
# allow localhost # allow localhost to connect to the server and
# allow admin:monit # require user 'admin' with password 'monit'
#
