Re: [Wrapper-user] restart tuning

On the other hand, I can see also where you would like the Wrapper to go. For Server applications, where you want the maximum availability and reliability, you want the wrapper to ALWAYS restart the app when it gets into trouble. For your app and others that match the requirement, you want less availability and reliability, and you want the wrapper to restart the app up to X number of times when the app has actually started. If it still is misbehaving, then just don't try to run the app anymore. Like I said in my previous email, Wrapper is designed more to deal with the first kind, but I do see usefulness in the second type. What do you think Leif?
