You can for example suspend the mythtv monitoring before starting the
mythfilldatabase this way:
monit unmonitor mythtv
and after mythfilldatabase finished, you can run:
monit monitor mythtv
which will enable the monitoring again.
The above commands can be added to the script which starts/stops the
mythfilldatabase.
If you want to keep monitoring the mythtv when mythfilldatabase. is
running and suspend just the port monitoring, you can move the 'if
failed port' statement to standalone service check like for example this:
check host mythtv_6544 with address 127.0.0.1
if failed port 6544 proto http then restart
depends on mythtv
and use the above trick to suspend monitoring of this service while
mythfilldatabase is running.

Hello,
I'm using monit to control my mythtv backend program. The only problem I have
is when mythfilldatabase is running the 6544 port is blocked. Since I have an
if statement to check this port to control the process, when mythfilldatabase
is running monti thinks that the backend has stopped thus it keeps restarting
the backend while mythfilldatabase is running.
Here's the if statement
if failed port 6544 proto http then restart
if 10 restarts within 15 cycles then timeout
How can I suspend the if failed statement when mythfilldatabase is running?
Thanks
