SKALE Watchdog

SKALE Watchdog is microservice running on every SKALE node for providing SLA agents with node performance metrics. It also can be used for external monitoring goals (validators can use it in their monitoring tools).

How It Works

Watchdog is a Python script running in docker container with Flask web server that provides simple REST JSON API available on port 3009 (http://YOUR_SKALE_NODE_IP:3009). Currently, Watchdog can give data on all SKALE node docker containers, health checks of sChains and SGX server, Ethereum node endpoint status, and hardware information.

Note

Node CLI automatically opens port 3009 on the machine using iptables. Be sure that port 3009 is open for the node’s external network for Watchdog to work.
