I know this new function.
Using "monit procmatch",  My process'name  is  matching !

My process'name, "a"  is actual  "jajs_spmd".

conf)
check process jajs_spmd matching "/opt/jp1ajs2/bin/jajs_spmd"
.....

result)
#  monit procmatch  /opt/jp1ajs2/bin/jajs_spmd
List of processes matching pattern "/opt/jp1ajs2/bin/jajs_spmd":
------------------------------------------
        /opt/jp1ajs2/bin/jajs_spmd
------------------------------------------
Total matches: 1

But start action or restart action is always "failed to start".


Thanks,
Kenichi Futatsumori in Japan.
