# Consul Monitor
|
|
|
|
Command: `consul monitor`
|
|
|
|
The monitor command is used to connect and follow the logs of a running
|
|
Consul agent. Monitor will show the recent logs and then continue to follow
|
|
the logs, not exiting until interrupted or until the remote agent quits.
|
|
|
|
The power of the monitor command is that it allows you to log the agent
|
|
at a relatively high log level (such as "warn"), but still access debug
|
|
logs and watch the debug logs if necessary.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
Usage: `consul monitor [options]`
|
|
|
|
The command-line flags are all optional. The list of available flags are:
|
|
|
|
* `-log-level` - The log level of the messages to show. By default this
|
|
is "info". This log level can be more verbose than what the agent is
|
|
configured to run at. Available log levels are "trace", "debug", "info",
|
|
"warn", and "err".
|
|
|
|
* `-rpc-addr` - Address to the RPC server of the agent you want to contact
|
|
to send this command. If this isn't specified, the command will contact
|
|
"127.0.0.1:8400" which is the default RPC address of a Consul agent.
