Can you not create a simple cron script that emails you when the process is down. That is what most people do. Something like this run every X minutes:

Code:
ps -ef | grep 'myprocess' | grep -v 'grep' | read result
if [[ -z "$result" ]] ; then
     echo "myprocess is down `date`" | mailx -s 'myprocess is down' me@my.com
fi

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
