Will Marshall commented on QUARKS-13:
-------------------------------------

Both of these solutions seems specific to POSIX and Linux, which is fine, but I also think there should be a solution for platforms like windows.

> Thinking of a mechanism which restarts the Quarks application if the JVM running Quarks hangs or closes unexpectedly. These options come to mind:
> - Write a script which checks for the pid of the jvm process running Quarks and restarts Quarks if the pid is not there. Run the script every minute using a cron job.
> - Setup Quarks app to run as a Linux service. Use inittab or systemd to manage Linux services and have options to restart a managed process automatically.
> There is also the hardware option. Embedded platforms frequently rely on watchdog hardware that resets it automatically if software stops periodically signalling the hardware that it is still alive.
> Anyone have any thoughts on this?
