RE: monit: instead of timeout after restart failures, can I have it alert?

[Sennott, Mark]

That's cool that it alerts, but I would also like to have it NOT give up
trying to restart. This is for an app that is dependent on a db, so when
I do db maintenance I would like for monit to just patiently keep
retrying until the db comes back and the app reconnects. Is there a way
to do this?

Hi,

Monit will do unmonitor *and* send alert on timeout (it is similar for
other action - alert is implicit)
