Hello,
This is monit version 5.0
I'm having difficulty with one of our applications that I have monit setup to
monitor.
The pertinant config is below:
# Monit Config file for Magneto
set daemon 10 with start delay 60 # Poll at 10-second intervals
set statefile /tmp/monit.state
check process mdService
with pidfile "/cogcap/ccts/var/run/mdService.magneto.pid"
start program = "/cogcap/ccts/bin/mdService start"
stop program = "/cogcap/ccts/bin/mdService stop"
if 10 restarts within 11 cycles then timeout
if mem > 256 Mb then alert
if cpu usage > 95% for 11 cycles then restart
#if failed port 9998 then restart
group base
It is a slow to start app, which is why I've commented out the port monitoring,
and added the start delay of 60.
>From /var/log/messages, I can see monit tries to start the process at
>00:15:01, and at 00:15:31 issues a failed to start.
At 00:15:47 I see monit now tries a restart, and a fail at 00:16:17.
This repeats 2 more times.
What ends up happening is I'm left with 4 processes running, because none of
them actually failed to start.
So, first question is why does monit issue the first failure after only 30
seconds if my start delay is 60?
How does monit determine that the startup was a failure? I'm certain that the
pid file is in place and contains the correct pid.
I guess my next step is to run monit -v?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Aaron
