extended use of procs (the second) 🔗 link

Sorry, my first mail match into another thread (Conn Test Times) ......


Hi !

I would use the procs-function to count several software versions &
programms to see which version will be heavily used or nobody cares about it ...

(our software developer want's to know it ) ...

So, the first shot was to include this in the PROCS test and it runs
really good with rrd-files and graphs ... but the procs-test should be
only my test for important system-processes ...

So i want to have the same test but with another
flag like "sfw" or something else ...

Is there a solution to use PROCS exactly for another/additional test ?

.. or got anybody a another solution or hint for it ?

Thanks,

       Martin

Can you be more specific as to what you want?  It sounds like you want 
to track the number of a particular processes. If so, you can do this 
via the "track" option in hobbit-clients.cfg, for example:

HOST=somehost
  PROC "/some/app/version-5.1" TRACK=App51
  PROC "/some/app/version-6.0" TRACK=App60

That would give you graphs as to how many instances of each software 
version were running at a time, but it sounds like you have already done 
this, so I'm not sure what else you need.

Why should it be another test? Just monitor and track these procs, but don't 
alert on them, only alert on the system processes.
