Verlauf

Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

Dwatch, short for Daemon Watch, is a small Unix monitoring tool by Ulric Eriksson. Its official page says it watches other programs and performs actions from conditions in a configuration file, and that it is meant to be run periodically from cron.

Projektgeschichte

The official changelog records Dwatch's creation on 2001-08-20 to keep Pen, another Siag project, running on siag.nu, with release 0.1.0 published at the same time. The project page is deliberately old-school Unix: make, make install, a sample dwatch.conf, and notes that Linux and Solaris were known to work.

Adoptionsgeschichte

Public adoption evidence is thin. The official page links a source download and an external SUSE RPM, while the batch input lists Homebrew and MacPorts formulae, suggesting survival mostly as a niche packaged Unix utility rather than a widely discussed monitoring system.

Wie es verwendet wird

The sample configuration shows directive, argument, and command columns, including examples that restart Pen when a process or TCP check is not satisfied. The intended workflow is to let cron invoke dwatch regularly, with dwatch deciding whether to run recovery commands.

Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

Dwatch is package-nerd interesting mostly as a fossil of early-2000s Unix service babysitting: a tiny cron-friendly daemon watcher from the same ecosystem as Pen and Siag Office, before modern supervisors and service managers became the default answer.

Zeitleiste

  • 2001: Dwatch created to keep Pen running on siag.nu; release 0.1.0 published.
  • 2001: Official page dated August 2001 documents Linux and Solaris support.
  • 2026: Batch input lists Homebrew and MacPorts packaging.

Related projects

  • The official page ties Dwatch directly to Pen, using Pen as the example service to restart. In package-manager terms it sits near cron, watchdog scripts, service supervisors, and small Unix monitoring tools.
