Cfengine allows you to check for the existence of processes on your
system, send those processes signals (such as kill) and perhaps
restart those processes. Typical applications for this are sending
cron
and inetd
the HUP signal, after editing their
configuration files, or killing unwanted processes (such as user
programs which hog the system at peak usage times).
You can read more about this in the reference section .
