Make the script executable and make it auto start on system boot:

chmod +x /etc/init.d/freeswitch
update-rc.d freeswitch defaults

Monit

Used to monitor processes on UNIX systems.

http://mmonit.com/monit/

Install

apt-get install monit

Edit Monit /etc/default/monit and set the “startup” variable to 1 in order to allow monit to start.

Configure

Fail2Ban

cd /etc/monit.d
touch fail2ban
nano fail2ban

Add the following to the file and save it.

check process fail2ban with pidfile /var/run/fail2ban/fail2ban.pid
 group services
 start program = "/etc/init.d/fail2ban start"
 stop  program = "/etc/init.d/fail2ban stop"
 if 5 restarts within 5 cycles then timeout

SIP

To monitor SIP from local or remote server

cd /etc/monit.d
touch sip
nano sip
check host fusionpbx with address your-ip
    if failed port 5060 protocol sip with target monit@monit:5060
        then alert

FreeSWITCH

cd /etc/monit/conf.d

or

cd /etc/monit.d

touch freeswitch
nano freeswitch

Add the following

::

#check process freeswitch with pidfile /usr/local/freeswitch/run/freeswitch.pid check process freeswitch with pidfile /run/freeswitch/freeswitch.pid start program = “/usr/bin/service freeswitch start” stop program = “/usr/bin/service freeswitch stop”

or

::

#check process freeswitch with pidfile /usr/local/freeswitch/run/freeswitch.pid #start program = “/usr/local/freeswitch/bin/./freeswitch -nc -u www-data” #stop program = “/usr/local/freeswitch/bin/./freeswitch -stop” check process freeswitch with pidfile /run/freeswitch/freeswitch.pid start program = “/usr/bin/./freeswitch -nc -u www-data” stop program = “/usr/bin/./freeswitch -stop”

Additional Options

if 5 restarts within 5 cycles then timeout
if cpu > 60% for 2 cycles then alert
if cpu > 80% for 5 cycles then alert
if totalmem > 2000.0 MB for 5 cycles then restart
if children > 2500 then restart

Monit Daemon Add to the main monit config file.

#monit daemon
set httpd port 2812 and
use address localhost
allow localhost

Monit Commands
