Yet one note ... you can also disable the PPID and PID alerts by upgrading Monit - these default test were disabled in Monit 5.11, changelog excerpt:
--8<--
New: The PID and PPID change tests are no longer implicit. If you want to test the process PID/PPID changes, you have to add this test explicitly:
if changed pid then alert
if changed ppid then alert
--8<--
Best regards,
Martin
