chkserv with one application and multiple processes
Let's say I've got 3 redis servers running on 1 machine. Each runs on a different port (1111, 2222, 3333).
I create each chkserv.d file as follows:
In the above, each of the services has a different file to launch redis on its own port. When launched, the process list might look like:
Am I right in saying that if 2222 goes down, chkserv will think redis is still running becuase the process "redis-server" still appears in the process list? Is there a way of telling chkserv to check for redis-server and the string 2222?
echo "service[redis_1111]=x,x,x,systemctl restart redis_1111.service,redis-server,redis_user" > /etc/chkserv.d/redis_1111
echo "service[redis_2222]=x,x,x,systemctl restart redis_2222.service,redis-server,redis_user" > /etc/chkserv.d/redis_2222
echo "service[redis_3333]=x,x,x,systemctl restart redis_3333.service,redis-server,redis_user" > /etc/chkserv.d/redis_3333
In the above, each of the services has a different file to launch redis on its own port. When launched, the process list might look like:
/usr/local/bin/redis-server 127.0.0.1:1111
/usr/local/bin/redis-server 127.0.0.1:2222
/usr/local/bin/redis-server 127.0.0.1:3333
Am I right in saying that if 2222 goes down, chkserv will think redis is still running becuase the process "redis-server" still appears in the process list? Is there a way of telling chkserv to check for redis-server and the string 2222?

Hello, You should be able to use port-based monitoring. Here's an example you can test for port 2222: service[redis_2222]=2222,QUIT,220,systemctl restart redis_2222.service,redis-server,redis_user

I can't believe it didn't occur to me to use port-based monitoring. Thanks, Michael! A similar question. What if sockets were used instead of ports? Would it be possible to handle that situation? 0 -

It should work if the service names are different. Feel free to test that out and let us know the outcome. Thank you.0 -
I'm not using anything socket based at the moment, but when I do, I'll come back with my results :) 0
