[monit] java daemons

[francis]

Hello Martin,

Thanks a lot for your good work.

I work in a VAS company. We have developed a few java daemons.
Monit is based on processID, my daemons do not have pid.
I understand that I should create a rapper scripts

One of my daemons is called, say xyz, locate in /app/japp/
i.e.

/app/japp/xyz.java
/app/japp/xyz.class
/app/japp/error_log
/app/japp/info_log

In my monitrc i should have someting like 

check process xyz with pidfile /tmp/xyz.pid
        start = "java /app/japp/xyz"
        stop = "  ???? stop"
I cant figure out how to create  /tmp/xyz.pid and hoe to start or stop it in monit.

with regards 
Francis
