The Hard Way

Container Health Monitoring vs. The Command Line

Miss the old days? Here's how to do everything Container Health Monitoring does... the hard way.

1

SSH into your server

Connect to your server via terminal.

terminal
ssh root@your-server-ip
2

List all containers

See what's running (and what's crashed).

terminal
docker ps -a
# Good luck remembering which container is which
# CONTAINER ID   IMAGE          STATUS
# a1b2c3d4e5f6   myapp:v1.2.3   Up 2 days
# f6e5d4c3b2a1   myapp:v1.2.2   Exited (1) 3 days ago
3

Check container logs

Dig through logs to find errors.

terminal
docker logs container_name --tail 500
# Scroll through 500 lines of unformatted text
# grep for errors manually

No syntax highlighting, no search, no filtering.

4

Restart a container

Stop and start the container manually.

terminal
docker compose stop app
docker compose start app
# Or the nuclear option:
docker compose down && docker compose up -d
5

Rollback to previous version

Hope you tagged your images properly.

terminal
# First, find the old image
docker images | grep myapp
# Edit docker-compose.yml to use old tag
nano docker-compose.yml
# Change image: myapp:latest to myapp:v1.2.2
docker compose up -d

If you didn't tag versions... good luck.
