Automatically Monitoring and Restarting Other Processes

The following sections describe the failure conditions for which sentryd monitors the following processes and the steps performed in attempts to restart a process after failure has been detected:

Monitoring Other Processes

The sentryd process monitors each process for the following conditions:

Restarting Other Processes

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

  1. Generates the following surveillance notification, where <process_name> is the name of the process:

    LSMS4021|08:40 Sep 11, 1998|xxxxxxx|Notify:Sys Admin - <process_name>
    failed
    
  2. Attempts to stop and restart the process. If the process restarts, no notification is posted.

Continuing Attempts to Restart Other Processes

If the attempt to restart the process fails, sentryd attempts again. If the attempt fails again, sentryd generates the LSMS4021 notification again. If this notification appears several times in a row, contact the My Oracle Support (MOS).
