heart anyone?

[Francesco Cesarini]

Dear Erlangers,

before I head off to reinvent the wheel, I was wondering if any one has 
implemented their own version of heart. What we are looking for is a 
behaviour similar to the supervisor one, where you can allow a maximum 
of X local restarts of the beam emulator in Y seconds. Possibly after X 
restarts, the OS is rebooted, erlang started up again, and if it 
crashes, the whole system just stops. Needless to say cyclic restarts 
have been a problem..

Any other thoughts on heart are welcome. Past problems, praises, horror 
stories, et all.

Thanks,
Francesco
