Hello,
We have a HTTP advanced sensor that monitors the URL ( health check). When this health check fails we would like to restart a service. Can this be done using PRTG. It would be great if someone share the info or documentation .
Thanks.
Restart Linux Service based on PRTG alert

Hi Sandeepreddy,
Yes, that's possible. Please select the option "Execute Program" for the Notification you're using.
With this option you can execute a script or a program as an external process. It can be a Windows executable file or a BAT, CMD, or PowerShell file. You can use EXE, COM, BAT, CMD, VBS, or PS1 files.
Please find more information within the following link: https://www.paessler.com/manuals/prtg/custom_notifications
I hope this helps. :)
Kind regards,
Andreas Günther
