Re: monit -g xxxx start

[Martin Pala]

As described in the documentation, the 'start' argument requires either 
the service name or parameter 'all'.


Example:
monit -g node1 start all

---

start all
   Start all services listed in the control file and
   enable monitoring for them. If the group option is
   set, only start and enable monitoring of services in
   the named group.

start name
   Start the named service and enable monitoring for
   it. The name is a service entry name from the
   monitrc file.
