Monit has an embedded HTTP interface which can be used to view the status of services monitored and manage services from a web interface.

By default all files located on /etc/monit/conf.d/ and /etc/monit/conf-enabled/ are read by monit when it is started, you can place your process monitoring configurations on this directory to keep things organized.

This file is highly commented out, you can reference it for all configs. Monit configuration files are located under /etc/monit/ directory.The main configuration file is /etc/monit/monitrc.

You can press the Space bar to read the second page or Enter to return to the command prompt.To start the process, use systemctl command available on Ubuntu 20.04/18.04: sudo systemctl enable -now monitĬheck if the service is running: $ sudo systemctl status monit You’ll see a page of license information. To start screen, simply type it as shown below and hit Enter: screen On Fedora, you type the following: sudo dnf install screen To install screen on Manjaro, use the following command: sudo pacman -Sy screen To install screen on ubuntu, use this command: sudo apt-get install screen

You can share a screen session between two different SSH connections so two people can see the same thing, in real-time.

You can disconnect from the remote host, reconnect, and your process will still be running.

You can connect to a remote machine, start a screen session, and launch a process.

You can also split your terminal window into vertical or horizontal regions, and display your various screen windows in one window. You can easily hop between windows to monitor their progress.

Once you’ve got a screen session running, you can create new windows and run other processes in them.

This is great for long processes you don’t want to accidentally terminate by closing the terminal window. When you want to see how your process is doing, you can pull the window to the foreground again (“reattach”) and use it again. The standard operation is to create a new window with a shell in it, run a command, and then push the window to the background (called “detaching”).
