Beginner's Questions

[Andrew Stewart]

Hi,

I've just started using God and have a few beginner's questions. I'd
appreciate any help you can give me.

- If I want to monitor several Rails apps' Mongrels on a server,
should I have a single instance of God running or one per app? How
do I monitor the second and subsequent apps?

- What's the difference between the commands stop, unmonitor and
remove? And quit and terminate?

- What commands should one use when deploying with Capistrano so that
the deployment's stopping and starting of Mongrel doesn't tangle with
God?

I can see that God will greatly improve my life but I haven't quite
figured out how to get there yet.

Thanks and regards,
Andy Stewart

Welcome to the glory of god Andrew, and good questions-- I've been
using God for a few months and I don't know great answers to the first
two.

Here is my solution, maybe Tom can tell us if he has a better one:

Thanks for that code snippet. It looks just the job. I'll use it
and let you know if I happen to think of any useful modifications.

I was wondering the same thing, did a search and found this. Thinking
I had found the answer I clicked the above link only to be greeted
with a 404 error.

So does someone have the code for the solution or another solution
they can share?

Thanks

I put the mongrels in their own watch group, then in my deployment
recipe I use "sudo 'god restart mongrels'".
