# Healthcheck Command
Checking the Health of your Traefik Instances.
{: .subtitle }
## Usage
The healthcheck command allows you to make a request to the `/ping` endpoint (defined in the install (static) configuration) to check the health of Traefik. Its exit status is `0` if Traefik is healthy and `1` otherwise.
This can be used with [HEALTHCHECK](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/#healthcheck) instruction or any other health check orchestration mechanism.
```sh
traefik healthcheck [command] [flags] [arguments]
```
Example:
```sh
$ traefik healthcheck
OK: http://:8082/ping
```
The command uses the [ping](./ping.md) endpoint that is defined in the Traefik install (static) configuration.
