Hi there,

I am running all Graylog components on 1 server for a small, specialized need I have. It has plenty of resources but I need to make sure I am alerted in case there’s a problem with Graylog.

I am curious to know which services I need to monitor to make sure Graylog is running? i.e. is there an overview of Graylog components?

MongoDB, Elasticsearch, and Graylog itself.
