I'm wondering if anyone can give me suggestions as to how to monitor a specific process to make sure it keeps running properly. The specific issue I have is that I have a Java Webstart applet running on OpenBSD 4.4 that, from time to time, randomly crashes. I can't just use check_process (I don't think so, at least) because when it "crashes" the process never actually exits- it just stops working. I have to go in and manually kill it before I can restart it. Does anyone have any thoughts as to how I could check for this situation? I realize this may not strictly be a nagios question, and I apologize to anyone who is bothered by that, but since I would be doing the monitoring with Nagios this seemed the most logical place I could think of to ask. Thanks!
