restart failed

[Pavel Urban]

Hello,

we have separated 'alert' and 'timeout' notifications and thess lines in 
monit.conf

check process mta-dispatcher with pidfile 
/usr/iplanet/mta-in1/msg-mta-in1/config/pidfile.imta_dispatch
  start program  "/usr/iplanet/mta-in1/msg-mta-in1/imsimta start 
dispatcher"
  stop program  "/usr/iplanet/mta-in1/msg-mta-in1/imsimta stop dispatcher"
  if 5 restarts within 5 cycles then timeout
  if failed host 192.168.10.12 port 25 protocol smtp then restart

It work ok, but today we've noticed that 'stop' method failed - and 
isn't tried again. It is probably normal. BUT - no timeout occures and 
therefore no 'timeout' notifications are sent, while the service is 
effectively not running. Can this be accomplished somehow?

Thanks!
