Monit is a helpful program that automatically monitors services to ensure that they remain online. Monit also monitors memory or cpu usage.

Services being monitored are listed at /etc/monit.d . Service can be checked by running "monit summary".

To avoid interlocking, if a service is restarted more than 3 times within 5 cycles , monit will forgot about it.

To tell monit to stop monitoring a service, run "monit stop <servicename>"
