When told to shutdown the OS should stop all services, including Monit,
shouldn't it?
-> It depends of how it was package for CentOS. And operating system
supervisor will only handle processes it managed and know how to manage.
If CentOS package maintainer did crap integration for Monit in CentOS, it
won't stop itself. Best is to perform a test on a clean system only with
Monit and see the behavior.
On your CentOS version, how is Monit managed (start/stop) by the
operating system ? Do it use system.d script ? service scripts ? init
script ?
In the past, when requiring OS shutdown, after some time (timeout reach),
the operating systems were issuing a soft kill then a hard kill signal.
This is not the case anymore as all processes *should *be managed by
operation system supervisor like upstart or system.d
Note that should is not a MUST. It people do crap, they have to clean up
their crap.

the processes that monit controls are fully controlled by monit, so the
OS doesn't touch them

Hello,
Are you using Monit to restart the processes when they "fail" ? If
shutdown process stop them but Monit start them back you'll go
into a loop
mostly. Il already encountered this kind of loop.
Anyway, it would be better to stop Monit as part of the shudown process
no ?
Best Regards.

Hi
I have several virtual centos 6.8 x64 VM's with
monit-5.14-1.el6.x86_64 installed. I am finding that I can tell a VM to
shutdown (either from the hypervisor or commandline), the
standard message
is sent and then it doesn't shutdown. I've waited hours and no
shutdown, If
I stop monit however at that point the shutdown proceeds normally.
Has anyone seen this? would a more up-to-date version fix it?
(Oh and its not consistent, sometimes the system does shutdown)
