For example, I have some cron scripts, which are similar for all of the services that I'm watching. They run periodically and restart services if they are down. It does not matter if they are down because of an upgrade or a failure, so this solution is more general. Here's an example that I have for MySQL: > > #!/bin/sh > PID_FILE="/var/db/mysql/server.mypc.hu.pid" > PID=`cat $PID_FILE` > EXECUTABLE="/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server start" > > if test -r $PID_FILE ; then > # pidfile exist, is it correct? > if kill -CHLD $PID >/dev/null 2>&1; then > # ok, exit silently > exit 0 > fi > rm -f $PID_FILE > fi > echo "" > echo "Couldn't find the MySQL server running, retsarting.." > echo "" > $EXECUTABLE >
I would prefer to parse the output of rc status, but I presume this script is more specialised.
