Re: Why are the services not started automatically on reboot?

Hello Markus,

No, we/I use AIX (7.2), SLES (11.4, 12.3 and 12.4) and MacOS (10.6,
10.10). We/I use Monit 5.25.2, 5.26.0 and 5.19.0 (for the old MacOS 10.6
systems only).

One monitor do the job only, nice to know.

Take in mind, services are dependend to other services are starting only
if the parent services are in status "OK". Sometimes you find some
information in the log, a services can not start, because a parent
service is not "OK".

I use "process" to handle several services, but I use "program" for some
specific applications as well, I will check my logs, but I thing I have
no problems with dependencies and process services.

I'll be back,
