Don't know if anyone else is interested in this, but I am running a script on
my server that does a check on certain processes and if it doesn't find them,
it attempts to restart the process. I find this useful on those rare
occasions when a process might terminate unexpectedly due to some anomaly
like a malformed update for Antivirus or the like. I am including a small
excerpt here just in case anyone is interested.
#!/bin/sh
# Script to check for processes on system
# and restart them if they have stopped.
#Web Server processes
# mysqld
mysqld_status=`ps -A | grep mysqld`
if [ "$mysqld_status" = "" ]; then
/etc/init.d/mysqld restart 2>&1 | /bin/mail -s "mysqld
restart" [EMAIL PROTECTED]
else
echo "mysqld already running"
fi
# Apache
httpd_status=`ps -A | grep httpd`
if [ "$httpd_status" = "" ]; then
/etc/init.d/httpd restart 2>&1 | /bin/mail -s "Apache
restart" [EMAIL PROTECTED]
else
echo "Apache already running"
fi
# AV/Security processes
# clamd
clam_status=`ps -A | grep clamd`
if [ "$clam_status" = "" ]; then
/etc/init.d/clamd restart 2>&1 | /bin/mail -s "clamd restart"
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
else
echo "clamd already running"
fi

if [ "$freshclam_status" = "" ]; then
