Hi Martin,
 
The monit version is 3.2.
Please find attached the conf file and log with monit in verbose mode.
The problem process is np1slave. Please let me know what the problem could be.
 
Thanks,
Arut

What is the monit version?
What is the monit configuration?
Can you run monit with the -v option and provide the log output for the failed restart attempt?

Thanks,
Martin

Hi All,
 
Monit fails to start a process that it is monitoring sometimes ( 2 out of 10 times)
The process is killed manually (e.g. pkill -9 xyz)
 
The pid file of the process that died is still intact but monit doesn't start the process.
The monit.log says: monit: Warning process 'xyz' was not started after 5 secs.
 
Changing the mode to active resolved the issue, but I have been told to identify the root cause.
 
I have already tried using strace as per monit FAQ. That resulted in a zombie process.
If I don't use strace, zombie is not created.Please guide me in resolving the issue.
 
I fail to understand why this problem happens once in a while.
What would prevent monit from starting a process? Appreciate your help in this regard.
 
Thanks,
Arut
