+# System Monitoring
+
+The below commands will setup ```monit``` to track key elements of the PiFrame hardware and software. ```monit``` is a very light weight monitoring solution and is used to ensure key parts of the system are in a reasonable state and working.
+
+``` sh
+
+pacman -S monit
+mkdir /etc/monit.d
+nano -w /etc/monitrc
+    include /etc/monit.d/*
+    set httpd port 2812 and
+        use address 0.0.0.0
+        allow admin:monit
+    set mailserver domain.tld port 587
+               username "piframe@domain.tld" password "apassword"
