Viktor, I am afraid I don't understand what are you trying to say.
This line: stop = "/bin/bash -c 'kill $MONIT_PROCESS_PID'" Works perfectly fine. Correct PID gets exposed and the desired process is killed. My question is what is executed if I omit the line completely and require monit to stop the process.

I think only the programs get these variables. Try using a shell script. cat <<"EOF" > /usr/local/sbin/monit-process-stop.sh #!/bin/bash kill "$MONIT_PROCESS_PID" EOF chmod +x /usr/local/sbin/monit-process-stop.sh ...and you may prepare the script for failed stopping or non-existent process.
