Hi CB,
What kind of failure(s) are you trying to account for with the monitor? Do you want to check that the server answers a generic HTTP request, or do you want to verify that it returns valid response data to a query?
Could you send a static request with a search string that should always return an HTTP 200 and then look for the 200 OK in the response?
If the request needs to be dynamic or the valid string in a response is far into the packet, citizen_elah's suggestion of using an external monitor is a good one.
