check process libvirt-example.domain with pidfile /var/run/libvirt/qemu/example.domain.pid
start program "/usr/bin/virsh start example.domain"
stop program "/usr/bin/virsh stop example.domain"
check host libvirt-net-example.domain with address example.domain
start program "/usr/bin/virsh start example.domain"
stop program "/usr/bin/virsh stop example.domain"
if failed icmp type echo count 5 with timeout 15 seconds then restart
