Re: Monitoring Mysql service status

[Martin Pala]

Hi,

the action performed by protocol test depends on the chosen type of 
protocol.

Monit has generic tcp connection test, which performs just connect and 
close the connection.

There are also specific protocol tests (such as mysql for example) which 
are testing more details - for example mysql test tries to login as 
anonymous user and if succeeded then performs mysql ping as well.

You can enable it using the 'protocol' option in the port or unix socket 
rule:

  if failed port 3306 protocol mysql then alert
