Hi all.

 
Just wandering, if I am monitoring processes.. like

 
PROC "java -DCLASSPATH=/opt/java/lib" 2 5 

 
Nobody of the operators watching the monitor pages knows whatta the hell this means.. so is it possible to set alias to this process line.. like

 
PROC "java -DCLASSPATH=/opt/java/lib" Alisas=Messenger   2 5

 
Then everyone knows what this stands for !

 
This could be a feature request, if not possible today  :D

 
Regards

Siggi

You can set a display text for your PROC test.

Syntax is:

PROC processname minimumcount maximumcount color [TRACK=id] [TEXT=displaytext]

See the comments in hobbit-clients.cfg or the man page for it.

Note that this is only possible with the upcoming version 4.2 - 
it does not work in 4.1.2.
