Re: Monit reload stopped the daemon

[Martin Pala]

Hi,

monit reload just sends a SIGHUP signal. The log message and monit stop comes from SIGTERM, but it must have been triggered externally, not by monit.

How do you start Monit? If you use for example upstart or systemd, it is possible that the SIGTERM was sent by it or manually by administrator using "monit quit" after "monit reload".

Regards,

Martin

Hi,

 

I have the following log, happened only once and not able to recreate this.  Did the following 

1.       I have stopped set of resources, 

2.       removed the corresponding config files under /etc/monit/conf.d

3.       ran monit reload

 

The step 3, somehow exited the monit daemon from running. (This exactly looked like it received SIGINT or SIGTERM, we have not explicitly killed this at this time)

This timed exactl during the reload. 

 

Any help in here is much appreciated. 

 

The snippet of the log is

……….
