Thanks for the clarification. I will be sure to remember that in the future.
I do find the PID/PPID one test statement confusing. I was initially even expecting all the statements behave like the CPU and memory tests, so you can stack them up. I was quite confused when i noticed in the documentation the subtle differences between the statements. If you are interested in my personal opinion, then it would be great, if all the statements would generally follow the similar syntax IF x y TIMES IN z CYCLES THEN doSomething But other than that i think monit is an amazing tool. Our whole team loves it and we really appreciate the work you put into it.
