Hi Tomas,
the initial check program implementation supported only one status test - we
have implemented support for multiple status tests, you can get the development
snapshot here:
http://www.mmonit.com/tmp/monit-5.5_20120510.tar.gz
Example syntax:
check program mytest with path "/usr/bin/mytest.sh"
if status == 2 for 2 cycles then exec "/usr/local/bin/fix_script.sh"
if status == 2 for 6 cycles then unmonitor
if status == 10 then alert
Regards,
Martin
