3 # Event handler script for restarting a service on the local machine
5 # Note: This script will only restart the service if the service is
6 # retried 3 times (in a "soft" state) or if the service somehow
7 # manages to fall into a "hard" error state.
11 # $2 $SERVICESTATETYPE$
23 # What state is the service in?
26 # Aha! The service appears to have a problem - perhaps we should restart it
27 # Is this a "soft" or a "hard" state?
29 # We're in a "soft" state, meaning that Nagios is in the middle of retrying the
30 # check before it turns into a "hard" state and contacts get notified...
32 # What check attempt are we on? We don't want to restart the service on the first
33 # check, because it may just be a fluke!
35 # Wait until the check has been tried 3 times before restarting the service
36 # If the check fails on the 4th time (after we restart the service), the state
37 # type will turn to "hard" and contacts will be notified of the problem.
38 # Hopefully this will restart the service successfully, so the 4th check will
39 # result in a "soft" recovery. If that happens no one gets notified because we
42 # Call the init script to restart the HTTPD server

47 # The service somehow managed to turn into a hard error without getting fixed.
48 # It should have been restarted by the code above, but for some reason it didn't.
49 # Let's give it one last try, shall we?
50 # Note: Contacts have already been notified of a problem with the service at this
51 # point (unless you disabled notifications for this service)
