I have a service process monitored by Upstart on Ubuntu.
If that process dies abnormally, I don't want to try to respawn it. Instead, I would like to throw a notification and shut down the entire instance for disposal, which I would probably do by running a shell command or script.
What is the best way to have Upstart do something other than respawning when a process dies?

Closest I've found so far is the assertion that "When a service crashes, upstart will execute the post-stop script, but not the pre-stop script. We can use this to detect a crash." blog.gitter.im/2014/02/12/monitoring-upstart-processes

Do you need to use an EOL or nearly EOL version of Ubuntu? Current versions of Ubuntu use systemd instead of upstart, and this would be pretty easy with systemd.
