Hi, I am refering to an articel in the mail archive (http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg00803.html). It is about the chance to do an "exec" after a specified number of restarts of a process. The problem is, that in this particular case the responsible statement won't work with "exec". Only "timeout" is accepted.
Martin wrote a hint for fixing the problem in an other way. But... :-) that fix is not for me. I do something like that in monitrc file: ... check process apache2 with pidfile /var/run/apache2.pid group www-data start program = "/etc/init.d/apache2 start" stop program = "/etc/init.d/apache2 stop" if cpu > 60 % for 2 cycles then alert if cpu > 80 % for 5 cycles then restart if children > 250 then restart if failed host mywebhost.uni-wuppertal.de port 443 type tcpssl protocol http request "/mymonit.html" then restart ... Now, I would like to write something like this: if 3 restarts within 5 cycles then exec "/etc/monit/shutmedown.sh" In either case the exec has to be done, because the systemload and / or the heavy number of children indicates an attack (max systemload in normal production on the server is lower 50 %) and we can't do anything against it - or there went something wrong with apache2 and we want to know the system down. With "exec" I want to start a shutdown-script by my own. After that, the servermirror will notice the absence of the productionsystem (signaled by heartbeat) and starts up apache2 and some other services. How can I make that work?
