Description

Quoting the docs:

How to disable monitoring for a specific process?
You can then use the command pm2 unmonitor [APP_NAME|ID] to stop monitoring a process with PM2 Plus. pm2 ls will display a red dot indicating the application will not be monitored by PM2 Plus. If you want to monitor the process again use pm2 monitor [APP_NAME|ID].

(emphasis added)

However, when I run pm2 ls on my servers, after removing some processes from PM2 Plus with "pm2 unmonitor", I cannot see any red dot in the list. Yet, I can confirm that the processes have been removed from PM2 Plus.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the documented sequence with pm2 unmonitor [APP_NAME|ID], then inspect the output of pm2 ls and compare it with the PM2 Plus FAQ. Done means an unmonitored process is visibly marked with the documented red dot while monitored processes remain unchanged.
