It better (only?) works if your server has a [hardware watchdog device](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watchdog_timer). The included sercice will regularly write to `/dev/watchdog`. If it stops, then the freeze is detected and server rebooted. This app has only been tested on Raspberry Pi. **Shipped version:** 5.16~ynh2 ## Documentation and resources - Upstream app code repository: - YunoHost Store: - Report a bug: ## Developer info Please send your pull request to the [`testing` branch](https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/watchdog_ynh/tree/testing).
