You could write a custom script to do this easily (you'd need to remember
state, but that's easy). I'm not aware of any built-in Hobbit check that
would do this however. Maybe somebody else knows.
Other things to consider trying (using standard Hobbit stuff):
When the process restarts, does it do anything in a logfile? i.e., could
you have Hobbit search for a restart text message in a logfile? Is the
logfile deleted and recreated at restart? You could have Hobbit check the
timestamp on the logfile possibly. When the process restarts, does it write
it's PID to a file? Check the timestamp of that PID file.
If the process gets rstarted by a script, maybe the script could write a log
entry for Hobbit to monitor??
