Hi All,

 

I want to write a bash script which can be executed by cron every minute to
check if an application is running. If it is not running the script should
start it again.

 

What I normally would do to check if it is running is execute:

 

# ps aux | grep App

root      7479 15.4  0.7  21300  7816 pts/1    Sl   06:34   0:00
/usr/local/bin/App

root      7495  0.0  0.0   2880   700 pts/1    R+   06:34   0:00 grep App

 

Is there a way of doing this? If it is, would it be reliable to use a bash
script and cron for checking if the application is running?

 

TIA

 

Albert
