Re: Use a Script result for Action

[Martin Pala]

The script can be integrated via standalone "check program" statement which was added in monit 5.3.

For example:

--8<--

check process myprocess with pidfile /var/run/myprocess

     start program = "/etc/init.d/myprocess start"

     stop program = "/etc/init.d/myprocess stop"

check program myscript with path /usr/bin/my-script

    stop program = "/usr/bin/monit stop myprocess"

    if status == 2 then stop

--8<--

Martin

I have a process that I want to monitor .  I have a script that checks to see if the Process is responding or if messages are being queued. Depending on if how many messages are in queue I need to respond differently. Normally I would use Nagios for this check but I want to use Monit’s rule based system to do something depending on output.

 

Is it possible to do something like this

 

check process my-process with pidfile /var/run/myprocess

     start program = "/etc/init.d/my-process start"

     stop program = "/etc/init.d/process stop"

     if exec “/bin/bash /usr/bin/my-script” == 1 then alert

     else if exec “/bin/bash /usr/bin/my-script” == 2 then stop

 

How can I use the output of my script to start, alert or stop my process?

 

Thanks
