Hi,
first - when the process is monitored by Monit, you should either restart it
gracefully via Monit or at least disable the monitoring before manual actions:
Either:
monit restart jetty8 # restart via Monit
Or:
monit unmonitor jetty8 # disable monitoring
/etc/init.d/jetty8 restart # e.g. restart/deploy the service manually
monit monitor jetty8 # enable monitoring
You can also suppress the restart on first failure like this (not recommended
as workaround for manual actions - above solution is better):
--8<--
check process jetty8 with pidfile /var/run/jetty8.pid for 2 cycles
start program = "/etc/init.d/jetty8 start"
stop program = "/etc/init.d/jetty8 stop"
if does not exist for 2 cycles then restart
--8<--
Regards,
Martin
