Sympl is comprised of a number of services, but from time to time, these mail fail, due to configuration problems, bugs, or the server simply running out of memory.
To ensure things continue to run smoothly, and avoid downtime as much as possible, Sympl has a monitor service named monit which confirms services are running okay.
This is comprised of a number of scripts in /etc/sympl/monit.d/ which test specific services and stops/starts them as needed.
To check the current health of your system, you can run sudo sympl-monit for a report of the current status.
