We played around with this idea at one point as well. You can send commands to systems through SSH, and this does include Windows systems if you install OpenSSH on them. Once you have that in place you can have OpenNMS trigger a script on specific events which will basically attempt to restart the service.

Please note that I am just speaking from theory as we never fully implemented this.

Is there a way to monitor and control a process / daemon within OpenNMS?

Pretty straight forward, I want to monitor a process on a Linux server (or Windows?) and if it goes down, I want to restart it. I know snmpd.conf can be setup with a process monitor but that's about all I know, I wasn't able to find much data on this control part.

Any suggestions or links that could point me in the right direction would be appreciated.

Thanks
