[monit] Monit with Mod_Rails (Phusion Passenger). Anyone doing this?

[Christopher Opena]

Hello all, just curious if anyone has had any success with using Monit to monitor Mod_Rails (Phusion Passenger, http://www.modrails.com/).  I've been trying to work out how to approach this but I keep running into issue with the fact that Mod_Rails spins up and kills processes automatically as it determines a need to do so based on number of incoming requests and idle requests, which frustrates any attempt to watch a specific pid.

Any ideas or thoughts would be most appreciated.
