Flash Encoder Auto Restart?

Question

Is it possible to configure the Flash encoder to auto restart
when there is some issue that causes the encoder to stop? And if
this is possible, is it also possible to have it attempt to
auto-restart until the conditions that caused the failure have been
resolved?
My scenario is that the Flash encoder stops and for our live
broadcasting 24/7, we can't have failures like that or have to sit
around watching all the encoders all the time. Basically what we
need is the ability to have the encoder just restart itself using
the same configuration over and over in response to an encoder stop
(for technical reasons, not necessarily that the operator said
"stop")
Thanks in advance!
