Hi,
I have the following use case, where I don't want certain
application to take more than a certain amount of memory. If it ever exceeds
for any reason I want it to restart. So I have the following configuration in
monitrc
Check process my-process matching 'my-process'
start program "/etc/init.d/S77-my-process start" with timeout 10 seconds
stop program "/etc/init.d/K23-my-process stop"
if memory usage > 12.0 MB for 4 cycles then restart
if 5 restarts within 5 cycles then unmonitor
So when the memory exceeds the stated limit I see that the stop script is
called but monit does not wait for the stop script to complete. Monit looks
like just waits for the process it was monitoring (my-process) to be killed and
once it detects that, it calls the start program.
I have few cleanup steps to do after the process has been killed before it can
be started again (which happens in the stop script) however it is started
before the cleanup is complete.
I tried changing the action as below to execute a script for restart however
the last line, if 5 restarts within 5 cycles then unmonitor does not seem to
work.
if memory usage > 12.0 MB for 4 cycles then exec "/etc/init.d/S77-my-process
restart"
Do you guys have any suggestion for this use case?
Thanks
Shankar
