How about something like this?

    strategies:
        { restart_cfservd
            restart_cfservd: "1"
            do_not_restart_cfservd: "99"
        }
    
    processes:
        restart_cfservd::
            "^root .* cfservd.*$"
                restart "/var/cfengine/bin/cfservd"
                signal=term
                ifelapsed=1440 # No more than once per day
        any::
            # Just in case the restart did not work
            "^root .* cfservd.*$"
                restart "/var/cfengine/bin/cfservd"

Best,
Brendan
