Title: automatic way to make sure plugin is running?
Post by: spacecase-25 on February 07, 2025, 07:21:08 AM
I notice sometimes that vnstat is not running, despite it being enabled. I'm not super familiar with BSD (far more experience with Linux), but is there a way to schedule a cron job or something to check whether vnstat is running and start it if it is not? I don't want to restart it if it is running tho.

Also, I was just poking around in the terminal a bit and I have yet to find a log for vnstat, where might that be? Perhaps I can find out why vnstat stops seemingly randomly.

Thanks.

BSD ps is not a million miles from its Linux counterpart
