Hi,
if the process does have a pidfile, it is usually updated only when the process
starts - in such case you can use the timestamp test to restart the process,
for example:
--8<--
check file myprocpid with path /var/run/myproc.pid
if timestamp> 3 days then exec "/etc/init.d/myproc restart"
--8<--
We can easily implement uptime test to Monit in the future, so it can be
possible to use somethig like:
--8<--
check process myproc with pidfile /var/run/myproc.pid
start program = …
stop program = ...
if uptime> 3 days then restart
--8<--
Hi,
These are interesting strategies, as I have some similar requirement.
For my boxes which are yum based often I see a hung updates yum process
that is a few days old, so I am looking for something to go and get
those, as they cause a miss on the next run of yum in cron.
However the outputs of "ps -ef" and "ps aux" are not entirelely trivial
to parse, as the "STIME" field seems to rollover from a "00:00" bare
time of day, to a "MMMDD" format after 24 hours...
Cheers,
Tom
