[squid-users] restarting dead worker

[senor]

Hi All,

I had to change a monitor script to use squidclient ping instead of 
'squid -k check' because the check would succeed even if all workers had 
died except for the coordinator and disker. Obviously, the real problem 
is that the workers are dying but what I'm looking for ATM is a way to 
restart individual workers. It seems a complete restart is necessary 
once the coordinator gives up after a few attempts. I'd like to trigger 
the coordinator to retry or something similar. Anything possible?

Bonus question: Where, if anywhere, is the cache manager use of "kid=N" 
documented? I haven't gone to the source code yet and would like not to.

Thanks in advance,
Senor
