Re: [hobbit] bbfix functionality in hobbit

My personal opinion is that having Hobbit (or Big Brother) take action
other than sending an alert goes beyond the scope of what it is intended
for...as a monitoring system.  I had thought about the same thing at one
point, but was talked out of it.


I would tend to agree myself, except 1) some people are asking about
such functionality, and 2) it would be nice during oncall weeks to not
have to get up and restart processes such as procallator, etc.

I would be interested in hearing what talked you out of this, however.
If nothing else, I can use it to talk other people out of it ;-)

Subject: [hobbit] bbfix functionality in hobbit

Is there any method with hobbit to have the client automatically
restart services, like bbfix does for BB?  We would like to be able to
restart services that tend to fail often (such as SSH tunnels)
automatically through Hobbit.  Without writing a custom external
script, I can't seem to find any information about doing this.


Thanks
