  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Question Watchdog v3 - New service configuration

Hi,

I've followed the following instructions for Watchdog to add new services configuration: Instruction - How to add a new service to the watchdog extension
Nevertheless, since Watchdog v3 upgrade, these new custom services are not being monitored (while still being listed).
I attempted to look at the mysql table within the Plesk database, but the table module_watchdog_service no longer exists.
Would you know where to look at? in which mysql table?
Thanks.
 
The instruction applies to Watchdog 2.x / Monit 2.x. Watchdog 3.x uses Monit 5.x, but new Monit has slightly different conf.file syntax. Previously, Watchdog was a Plesk module and had more internal dependencies with Plesk; it was converted to an extension and now has a slightly different data structure.

For PHP-FPM services, we have a UserVoice request (Manage all the additional Plesk PHP-FPM versions in Watchdog Monitoring extension on modern OSes, systemd makes this work better; it detects a service down event and restarts a service much faster.

Could you please provide more details on what additional services you want to monitor, why it is essential, and why systemd can't do this work? After the release, we are collecting feedback now; feel free to share all your thoughts.
