Serverwake is presented as a single-binary Ubuntu tool that watches selected systemd services and restarts them if they stop.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-25 issue.
For
Ubuntu server administrators managing a handful of services
Worth noticing
The example configuration sets a 60-second interval and binds its read-only status page to 127.0.0.1.

Field notes

The example configuration names services, sets the polling interval, chooses a log path, and controls whether the local status page is enabled. Sample output includes both a successful nginx restart and a failed php-fpm restart, making clear that recovery is not guaranteed in every case. The page also excludes containers, non-Ubuntu systems, multi-server management, and remote commands.
