Thanks Martin.  I tried to follow Monit project directions to create a pull request and I put it at the link below.  Hopefully I followed the instructions correctly.

Thanks again.

V/r,

Hi,

"disk" is reserved word, so you need to quote it if you want to use it as string:

        if failed gid "disk" then unmonitor

Best regards,
