# Health monitor
The health monitor requires both `sanic>=22.9` and `sanic-ext>=22.9`.
You can setup Sanic Extensions to monitor the health of your worker processes. This requires that you not be in [single process mode](../../guide/deployment/manager.md#single-process-mode).
## Setup
.. column::
Out of the box, the health monitor is disabled. You will need to opt-in if you would like to use it.
.. column::
```python
app.config.HEALTH = True
```
## How does it work
The monitor sets up a new background process that will periodically receive acknowledgements of liveliness from each worker process. If a worker process misses a report too many times, then the monitor will restart that one worker.
## Diagnostics endpoint
.. column::
The health monitor will also enable a diagnostics endpoint that outputs the [worker state](../../guide/deployment/manager.md#worker-state). By default is id disabled.
.. danger::
The diagnostics endpoint is not secured. If you are deploying it in a production environment, you should take steps to protect it with a proxy server if you are using one. If not, you may want to consider disabling this feature in production since it will leak details about your server state.
.. column::
```
$ curl http://localhost:8000/__health__
