Re: Process resource monitoring on Mac

[Martin Pala]

Hello,

it seems realy that apple is phasing out the kvm interface. We can fix 
it in next monit release probably. I have tested monit on Mac OS X (ppc) 
where the kvm is still available by default.

Thanks for info, i will add the platform hint to the documentation.
