Restarted IO GigE camera servers

I restarted the server processes for the three IO GIGE cameras this morning (cam09, cam28 and cam29). Even though cam09 runs on a different server machine than the othe two, they all three stopped running at the same time (Sunday 26 Jan 06:17 UTC) and I had the same problems restarting them. I first tried a 'restart' via the monit web page, this produced a restart error message. I then did a sequential monit 'stop' and 'start'. this appeared to work, but the uptime actually stayed the same at 18 days and the cameras were still unresponsive. I finally logged into the two servers as root user and manually issued the '/etc/init.d/h1camXX stop|start' commands to finally get the processess restarted.
