Hi,Fadia Almarei

The Service Monitoring Daemon (http://www.kernel.org/software/mon/) will
satisfy your requirements. It can monitor service status , and issue alert or perform script when service down or any status you have been defined.

Hi Fadia Almarei ,

easy configure Service Monitoring Daemon
For example:
Monitor apache service

edit file mon.cf

cfbasedir = /etc/mon
alertdir = /usr/lib/mon/alert.d
mondir = /usr/lib/mon/mon.d
statedir = /usr/lib/mon/state.d
logdir = /usr/lib/mon/log.d
dtlogfile = /usr/lib/mon/log.d/dt.log
maxprocs = 20
histlength = 100
randstart = 60s
dtlogging = yes
authtype = getpwnam

hostgroup servers 10.1.1.1 10.1.1.2
hostgroup www 10.1.1.1

watch www
service http
interval 1m
monitor http.monitor
period wd {Sun-Sat}
alert apacherestart.alert
alert mail.alert song@heming.org

edit file apacherestart.alert
#!/bin/sh
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Perform script apacherestart.alert and send mail to song@heming.org ,If http service down .

Fadia,

Mon is a very good choice to solve your problem.

There's a script monitor for radius ( http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/software/admin/mon/contrib/monitors/radius/ ) that you can use with little efort.

Mon's site is http://www.kernel.org/software/mon/

regards,
xyko

Hi Fadia Almarei ,

Please open following URL
http://www.kernel.org/software/mon/

The file mon.cf will be created after mon package install.
