Monitoring was broken after updating splunk. Searching index=_internal (sourcetype=web_availability_modular_input ERROR) revealed error due to isAlive() call, which was removed in Python 3.9
I edited my local copy of $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/website_monitoring/bin/web_ping.py to change isAlive() to is_alive(), deactivated and reactivated the website monitoring app and it was functional again.
