Configuration

Edit the python.d/monit.conf configuration file using edit-config from the Netdata config directory, which is typically at /etc/netdata.

cd /etc/netdata   # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different
sudo ./edit-config python.d/monit.conf

Sample:

local:
name : 'local'
url : 'http://localhost:2812'
user: : admin
pass: : monit

If no configuration is given, module will attempt to connect to monit as http://localhost:2812.
