Monit is a utility for managing and monitoring processes, programs, files, directories and file systems on a Unix like system. Monit conducts automatic maintenance and repair and can execute meaningful causal actions in error situations. E.g. Monit can start a process if it does not run, restart a process if it does not respond and stop a process if it uses too much resources. You can use Monit to monitor files, directories and file systems for changes, such as timestamps changes, checksum changes or size changes.
Monit is controlled via an easy to configure control file (/etc/monit/monitrc) based on a free-format, token-oriented syntax. Monit logs to syslog or to its own log file (/var/log/monit.log) and notifies you about error conditions via customisable alert messages.

4. Monitor System CPU, Memory, Load
Configure monit to monitor system load, cpu usage and memory usage. Once gauge exceeded, monit will trigger a reboot using command '/sbin/shutdown -r now'.
netsec@ubuntu:~$ sudo vi /etc/monit/monitrc
check system $HOST
if loadavg (1min) > 1 then alert
if loadavg (5min) > 1.05 then exec "/sbin/shutdown -r now"
if cpu usage > 50% for 5 cycles then alert
if cpu usage > 75% for 3 cycles then exec "/sbin/shutdown -r now"
if memory usage > 85% then alert
# if memory usage > 95% then reboot
if swap usage > 25% then alert
Here are some logs when system resource threshold reached , and monit service was triggered:
