Hey everybody - I wanted to throw in my 2 cents on this issue because even with all the responses still no one had said this yet.
I use a variation of the cron monitoring system: I have a separate machine (or could feasibly be the Webware server) hit a protected HTTP page served by Webware which dumps stats from the box. I hit the page every 2 minutes, but some of the stats are refreshed every 10-20 minutes to conserve server resources. If anything goes wrong, I get emailed/paged, but I do NOT restart Webware automatically. The reason for this is that a crashed live AppServer should never happen, so when it does it usually means there is some seriously wrong code running, or something malicious going on, and I would rather identify the problem, restart manually, than restart in a chaotic situation. I just don't like running anything that could possibly mask a fatal error. Regards, Ben _______________________________________________________________ Have big pipes?
