Thanks, Jeremy & Carl for the hints !

That's will be the way (external process- or logfile/pidfile-monitorscript)

Anyway, i thought there is eventually a built-in function for this ;-)

thanks & cheers

 What platform are you on?
On Linux you can do
ps -p<pid> -oetime
or
ps -C<backupname> -oetime

You just need an external script to report green if it's not found.  If
it's been going over 24 hours then the format is D-HH:MM:SS so you just
need to check for the dash then check the number of days.

 Hi !

 Unfortunatley i didn't found a solution for my problem except these

 The question is, if anybody has a idea,
 how i can monitor the runtime for certain processes,
 preferably with his pid ?

 My real problem is, that my backup-system runs at beginning of the
months
 maybe more than 2 days ... but in the normal way it's runs 2-4 hours ...

 So, i want to have a yellow alert after 24 hours and a red alert after
48
 hours .. is this possible ?

 Thanks & Cheers
