Re: Question about restart/stop

[Martin Pala]

The "set alert" is necessary - it sets the alert destination. The per-test action (such is "if failed XYZ then alert" or "... restart") dosn't set the alert destination - it just triggers the alert to the email set in "set alert".

The base cycle is configured using "set daemon" statement - if you want to check some service less frequently, you can use the "every" statement:

check process ABC with pidfile /var/run/ABC.pid

every 5 cycles

...

I recommend to check Monit manual and configuration examples (the mailing list is not meant as tutorial for basic configuration):

Well but I defined set alert address@hidden not on {instance, action}

 

Ok I’ll remove it no problem.

 

It’s not possible to have cycle time per daemon, is it?

The "stop" action will send alert too (no need for explicit "stop+alert" action).

There’s always one last question J

 

Is it possible to have alert and stop in the same statement? Like:

 

          if failed port 123 then alert stop

 

is it?

Well perfect, didn’t saw it!

 

By default debian has /etc/monit/monitrc.d/ with some scripts, and I thought it was reading it, but no, the default is /etc/monit/conf.d/

 

Solved, thanks a lot!

Make sure your monit configuration file has "include" statement set for this directory. If you add some include file, you have to reload Monit to load it (CLI: "monit reload").

Sorry but another question.

I created a script in monitrc.d, but it seems that is not being read, how can I know if the script is really being read ?

Hi,

 

yes you can use stop, for example:

 

          if failed port 123 then stop

 

 

Regards,

Martin

Hi guys,

 

I’d like to know, it I can use or its supported, “stop” instead of “restart”, is it?

 

Thanks in advanced,

Jorge Bastos,
