The Monitoring Service provides REST API to monitor the status of various services running in EFA. This service runs on the host and is exposed on port 8078, which is not the port where the EFA application is running. On a multi-node setup, this service is available on both nodes and can be accessed through the virtual IP (VIP).
To start or stop the Monitoring service, execute the systemctl stop/start/restart monitor.service command as a sudo or root user.
For information, see REST API Documentation for EFA.
