there is an option at the service level called "redistribute" which
will call an alert every time a monitor terminates, regardless of the
return status.


watch abc
     service xyz
        redistribute alertname arg1 arg2 ...
        period wd {mon-fri}
...


the alert would get the exit status from the environment variable
MON_RETVAL, so, given that, your alert could decide what to do.

this is a feature in mon 1.2.
