Hello,
monit tests if the process is running - it cannot differentiate that the
process was stopped intentionally by 3rd party action ... if you shutdown the
process intentionally during logrotate, you should disable its monitoring first
(part of logratotation "prerotate" script):
monit unmonitor myprocess
and when logratotation finished, enable it again (part of logratotation
"postrotate" script):
monit monitor myprocess
Regards,
Martin
