What makes you think Paddy indicated he wouldn't try to solve the problem?
Here's what he wrote:
What I'm proposing is that if, for example, a process stops running
three times in a year at roughly three to four months intervals , and it
should have stayed up; then restart the server sooner, at aa time of
your choosing, whilst taking other measures to investicate the error.
I see nothing wrong with trying to minimize the chances of a problem rearing
its ugly head while at the same time trying to investigate its cause (and
presumably solve it).
