Rspamd monitoring with Monit

Veröffentlicht am von Gerald

Rspamd should be monitored by Monit and restarted automatically if the service stops running.

If Rspamd comes without a PID file, a suitable configuration for Monit would be like this:

Create config file

vi /etc/monit/conf-avaliable/rspamd
check process rspamd
   matching 'rspamd: main process'
   start program = "/sbin/service rspamd start"
   stop program = "/sbin/service rspamd stop"

   if cpu is greater than 40% for 2 cycles then alert
   if cpu > 60% for 5 cycles then alert
   if memory > 80% for 4 cycles then alert
   if totalmem > 512 MB for 5 cycles then alert

Enable monitoring for Rspamd

ln -s /etc/monit/conf-available/rspamd /etc/conf-enabled/rspamd

Restart Monit

service monit restart
