[[actuator.process-monitoring]]
== Process Monitoring
In the `spring-boot` module, you can find two classes to create files that are often useful for process monitoring:
* `ApplicationPidFileWriter` creates a file that contains the application PID (by default, in the application directory with a file name of `application.pid`).
* `WebServerPortFileWriter` creates a file (or files) that contain the ports of the running web server (by default, in the application directory with a file name of `application.port`).
By default, these writers are not activated, but you can enable them:
* <<actuator#actuator.process-monitoring.configuration,By Extending Configuration>>
* <<actuator#actuator.process-monitoring.programmatically>>
[[actuator.process-monitoring.configuration]]
=== Extending Configuration
In the `META-INF/spring.factories` file, you can activate the listener (or listeners) that writes a PID file:
[indent=0]
----
org.springframework.context.ApplicationListener=\
org.springframework.boot.context.ApplicationPidFileWriter,\
org.springframework.boot.web.context.WebServerPortFileWriter
----
[[actuator.process-monitoring.programmatically]]
=== Programmatically Enabling Process Monitoring
You can also activate a listener by invoking the `SpringApplication.addListeners(...)` method and passing the appropriate `Writer` object.
This method also lets you customize the file name and path in the `Writer` constructor.
