Have you checked out, http://mmonit.com/wiki/Monit/ConfigurationExamples ?

Hi Jan-Henrik,

Yes, I did use that for the initial configs, but I need that next level of
control.
As an example I want to monitor lets say postfix, I need it to be down more
than 10 seconds before it starts to retry etc.  So I know I can increase the
cycles ( of time) but lets say I restart postfix after updating a
configuration because the PID changed it sends me messages.  I don't care if
the pid changes only if the process is running or not, allowing it to be
down for lets say 1 minute before notifies or attempts to restart the
process.

Thanks!
