I wanted to configure monit with a rule that checks a network connection, restarts the connection if it fails, and eventually reboots the entire router if the connection restarts don't work.
I wrote this in my rules: start "/sbin/ifup inet" stop "/sbin/ifdown inet" if failed icmp type echo count 3 timeout 10 seconds then restart if 3 restarts within 5 cycles then exec "/sbin/reboot" When I tested these rules I found that monit 5.0.3 does not support the phrase: ... then exec "/sbin/reboot" But this phrase is supported by monit 5.1.1. I patched the Makefile to upgrade to 5.1.1, rebuilt and reflashed, and now my monit rule runs as intended. So I have tested this on a grand total of one machine (Linksys WAG354G, TI AR7). Is this enough to justify upgrading monit for everyone? My changes to package/feeds/packages/monit/Makefile are below. They were generated with svn diff.
