Hello,
I am trying to check a process that sends arbitrary data on the socket. The
existing send/expect does not appear to be meeting my needs as the output from
the program I am attempting to check is not consistent.
I am using the following monit script:
check process progname with pidfile /var/run/progname.pid
start program = "/etc/init.d/prog start" with
timeout 60 seconds
stop program = "/etc/init.d/prog stop"
if failed port <n> send "command\r\n" expect
"command ACK" with timeout 60 seconds retry 5 then restart
the program is a service which listens on a port and accepts commands. It is
possible that when connecting to the port that there is some arbitrary data in
the buffer which is sent on connection to the socket. It is also possible that
while connected data will be sent that is not related. The following shell
command succeeds where monit is not.
(echo "command"; sleep 5) | nc localhost <port> | grep "command ACK"
This allows me to ignore any arbitrary data coming from the port and look only
for my expected output.
I want to add something like.
If failed <run some program here> status != 0
then restart
Is something like this possible in monit 5.16 gramar?
