I'm looking for advice from anyone who is monitoring the services inside 
Scalr.

I know there is a tool `scalr-server-manage` that allows us to see the 
running systems.

# scalr-server-manage 
crond                            RUNNING   pid 4359, uptime 24 days, 
14:15:40
httpd                            RUNNING   pid 3772, uptime 24 days, 
14:15:44
memcached                        RUNNING   pid 4317, uptime 24 days, 
14:15:40
mysql                            RUNNING   pid 3955, uptime 24 days, 
14:15:40
rrd                              RUNNING   pid 3775, uptime 24 days, 
14:15:44
service-analytics_poller         RUNNING   pid 5197, uptime 15 days, 
16:54:10
service-analytics_processor      RUNNING   pid 5231, uptime 15 days, 
16:54:06
service-dbqueue                  RUNNING   pid 4859, uptime 15 days, 
16:54:21
service-msgsender                RUNNING   pid 4826, uptime 15 days, 
16:54:24
service-plotter                  RUNNING   pid 4893, uptime 15 days, 
16:54:18
service-poller                   RUNNING   pid 5023, uptime 15 days, 
16:54:15
service-szrupdater               RUNNING   pid 5160, uptime 15 days, 
16:54:13
zmq_service                      RUNNING   pid 5485, uptime 15 days, 
16:54:01

But I don't believe the system has any thing built in to monitor processes, 
repair and alert.  Am I missing something?  Should I use Chef or MonitD? 
 I'm a long time and recovering puppet user with little chef experience.

QUESTIONS

   1. What should I use to monitor services in Scalr?
   2. If a service reports down should I simple call for it to start back 
   up again with `scalr-server-manage`

Really looking for best practices before I just make something that work 
and seems to be really easy.  Thanks.
