Add Server Watchdog Cron Job #4

Closed chmille4 closed 9 years ago

chmille4 commented 9 years ago

Currently, if a server crashes, it's restarted automatically by forever, but every few months forever fails to restart a server and it can be down for hours until we realize it.

To fix this, we need to add a cron job that monitors (maybe every 5 minutes) the uptime of the servers and restarts them when they are down. If a server is down for more than 2 checks/restarts then it should email us to check it out.
