Automatically Monitoring and Restarting EAGLE Agent Processes

The following sections describe the failure conditions for which sentryd monitors the EAGLE agent processes (eagleagent) and the steps performed in attempts to restart the process after failure has been detected.

Monitoring EAGLE Agent Processes

The sentryd process monitors each EAGLE agent process for the following conditions:

Failure to initialize during automatic system startup
Failure to initialize during manual startup using the eagle command
An abnormal exit during normal operation
Inability to perform its defined tasks, for example, because it is in an infinite loop

Restarting an EAGLE Agent Process

When one of conditions described in “Monitoring Eagle Agent Processes” has been detected, sentryd performs the following tasks:

Generates the following surveillance notification, which represents the Common Language Location Identified (CLLI) of the EAGLE:
```
LSMS6004|08:40 Sep 11, 1998|xxxxxxx|Notify:Sys Admin - FAILD: eagleagent <CLLI>
```
Attempts to stop and restart the eagleagent. If the eagleagent restarts, sentryd generates the following Surveillance notification:
```
LSMS6005|08:40 Sep 11, 1998|xxxxxxx|Notify:Sys Admin - RECOV: eagleagent <CLLI>
```

Continuing Attempts to Restart an EAGLE Agent Process

If the attempt to restart the eagleagent fails, sentryd attempts again.

If this attempt is also unsuccessful, the sentryd process generates the following Surveillance notification and continues to attempt to restart the eagleagent process.

LSMS6006|08:40 Sep 11, 1998|xxxxxxx|Notify:Sys Admin - RFAILD: eagleagent <CLLI>

If this notification appears several times in a row, contact the My Oracle Support (MOS).
