Davikar,
Your question/problem reminded me of the solution that I have adopted
for invoking /etc/init.d/servicefoo scripts from monit.
In general, I make sure that all of our init.d scripts have three targets:
start:
- Performs normal service startup, using full pathnames, etc.
stop
- Performs 'monit unmonitor servicefoo'
- Performs normal service shutdown
monitstop
- Performs normal service shutdown
Inside of monitrc:
start - '/etc/init.d/servicefoo start'
stop - '/etc/init.d/servicefoo monitostop'
What this combination does is it allows me to type
'/etc/init.d/servicefoo stop' without having to worry about monit
immediately restarting the service behind my back :)
And when monit needs to stop a service (by invoking 'monit stop
servicefoo') it will not also accidentally unmonitor the service.
Hope this helps,
jason
