Re: [monit] Fwd: want to continue checking

[Nick Upson]

when the ping fails I get, as expected

cs_host icmp ping failed
cs_host failed ICMP test
cs_host icmp ping failed, skipping any port connection tests

the next time around (2 mins later) and subsequently there is no
output relating to this test at all
