On FreeBSD when I stop the Xymon client process it doesn't clean up all
of its children. Primarily you'll find that the vmstat command is not
sent a signal and continues to run ... indefinitely?
I have observed this behavior on Solaris, but the vmstat does eventually
disappear. It does not run forever.

However, the result is that you can't do a restart on Solaris 10 with
SMF if you are using vmstat. I have patched my scripts on Solaris to
kill the child processes.
Ahhh. I haven't run into this problem because I'm not trying to use SMF
to control it. I use " ~/server/xymon.sh restart " if I want to restart
it interactively as the non-priv'd user. As root, my init-script does
about the same thing.
For future reference, how did you modify your manifest or scripts to
meet your needs?
