Disabling watch in PM2

aaP_CMDRKTM2020

I'm trying to disable watch in my PM2. The pm2 start sh script seem to indicate that the config file is /www/server/nodejs/vhost/pm2_configs/backend_pm2/ecosystem.config.cjs. I tried changing watch to false here, but pm2 show backend_pm2 | grep "watch & reload" | cat still shows that │ watch & reload │ ✔ . Interestingly, each time when I save changes on the aapanel's node manager tab, watch is overwritten to true in this cjs file.

Any help would be appreciated!

Hello, it will automatically restore to default after saving.

aaPanel_Kern Thanks for clarifying. But I still don't quite understand how I could disable watch alltogether, because setting the option in the cjs file to false and restarting pm2 doesn't do the trick. Thanks
