WatchDog watchdog.sh script for checking server running -

#!/bin/bash

# Service watchdog script

# Put in crontab to automatially restart services (and optionally email you) if they die for some reason.

# Note: You need to run this as root otherwise you won't be able to restart services.

# Example crontab usage:

# Strict check for apache2 service every 5 minutes, pipe results to /dev/null

# */5 * * * * sh /root/watchdog.sh apache2 "" > /dev/null

# "Loose" check for mysqld every 5 minutes, second parameter is the name of the service

# to restart, in case the application and service names differ. Also emails a report to admin@domain.com

# about the restart.

# */5 * * * * sh /root/watchdog.sh mysqld mysql admin@domain.com > /dev/null

# Common daemon names:

# Apache:

# apache2 - Debian/Ubuntu

# httpd - RHEL/CentOS/Fedora

# ---

# MySQL:

# mysql - Debian/Ubuntu

# mysqld - RHEL/CentOS/Fedora

# ---
