I don't know if my title is significant but I hope you can help me.
I'm using Solaris Services (on a SunOS 5.10 station) to start/stop/restart business applications. The services work fine but I've some kind of issue.
The applications can also be start/stop/restart manually by scripts, and some users still use those old scripts (and I can't change their way to work). So I have to face sometimes to a disabled or an offline service, but the application running fine...
It's a problem because I use my services to monitor the state of each application on each server with a GUI, which is wrong in this case.
So I wonder if we can catch the status of an application and define the service status with it. Or anything like this.
Tell me if I'm not clear.
