I typically would use the below to monitor zookeeper on ubnutu 12.04.
check process zookeeper with pidfile "/var/run/zookeeper.pid"
start program = "/etc/init.d/zookeeper start" stop program = "/etc/init.d/zookeeper stop"
Problem is there is no pid file
I can get the pid using "pidof java".
So..how to a make monit work with pidof in lieu of "with pidfile "/var/run/zookeeper.pid"?
