Hi Mark!, you can do it installing "monit" service.
* Install monit server
* Create /etc/monit.d/mailbox_log file:
check file mailbox_log with path /opt/zimbra/log/mailbox.log
if match "Connection pool shut down" then exec "/opt/zimbra/bin/zmmailboxdctl restart" as uid zimbra and gid zimbra
* Restart and enable monit service
And that's all!
You will see on /var/log/monit.log
[-03 Nov 3 12:50:48] info : 'mailbox_log' exec: '/opt/zimbra/bin/zmmailboxdctl restart'
There are some ansible roles for install and configure monit server too.... if you need some help dm me ;)

Hi Mark and Aaron,
Thanks for your replies.
The action that needs to be taken is to restart mailboxd; I don’t care about an email notification because there is separate monitoring that takes care of notifications.
8.8.15 Patch 3 contains a fix for a bug that causes the httpclient connection pool to shut down, causing the web client to display a Error 500 message.
Based on my and one of my customer’s experiences, the bug remains elsewhere.
So, I’m really just looking for a way to watch mailbox.log for the connection pool shut down message and restart mailboxd automatically thereafter.
And ideally I’d not like to modify any of the existing Zimbra configs.
How does my proposed hack script look to you?
Thanks!
Mark

Swatch does have the ability to send emails, however, if you are monitoring the email system and it's down, that won't work. For one customer, I configured a sendmail (that came with the OS) service to relay the swatch results and it worked OK.

I'm pretty sure you could use a tool called swatchdog/swatch that is bundled with Zimbra to do this (we were just walking about it on irc this week so it must be stuck in my head). It's what's used to watch the zimbra logs and send email notifications but if memory serves you can have it run other commands when a match is made instead of sending an email.

Scripting is not my forte, but I know a little, so asking for help please.
I'd like to watch mailbox.log for a certain string as the zimbra user and then take an action. Something like:
tail -F /opt/zimbra/log/mailbox.log | grep --line-buffered 'Connection pool shut down' | while read ; do 'zmmailboxdctl restart' ; done
I'd run this in a detached screen session.
Any help/suggestions appreciated!
Thanks,
Mark
