Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: monit
Ubuntu 9.04
monit 1:4.10.1-4
1. In /etc/init.d/monitrc, write "set daemon 10"
2./etc/init.d/monit restart
Expected: monit checks state every 10 seconds
Actual: it does so every 3 minutes
Reason:
/etc/init.d/monit starts monit daemon with -d $CHECK_INTERVAL, where
$CHECK_INTERVAL is set to 180, and a comment there says:
# We default to 180s (3min) check intervals
In reality, it doesn't DEFAULT to 180s, it overrides configuration with 180s,
which causes weirdness, if you don't know about this (monit being what it is,
it can be hard to notice). One example that had a really bad impact in my case
was the fact that any configuration statement that talks in terms of cycles
meant 18 times longer durations than intended.
** Affects: monit (Ubuntu)
