Hi,
I have monit monitoring an snmp server,
Every once in a while I have to kill the snmp and then the monit
restarts it.
The problem is that for some reason the monit sees the snmp status as
"Execution failed" even though it is working fine.
Where does the monit decide this?
check process snmpd
with pidfile "/var/run/snmpd.pid"
start program = "/sbin/start-stop-daemon -S -p
/var/run/snmpd.pid -x /usr/sbin/snmpd -- -c /etc/snmpd.conf -p
/var/run/snmpd.pid -Lf /dev/null"
stop program = "/sbin/start-stop-daemon -K -p
/var/run/snmpd.pid"
group mngmnt
mode manual
depends on aimDaemon
every 2 cycles
aimDaemon runs fine and the status is OK too.
If I kill the snmp process, the monit will run it again but it gets
Execution failed even though the process works fine!

As you can see the pid holds the correct number, the process is running
and working well, why do I get status Execution failed?
Thank you, Lilach
