Description

This monitor allows monitoring processes count, as well as CPU (%) and memory (Mbytes) usage for process matching the filter. This monitor looks up combined process full path [1.3.6.1.2.1.25.4.2.1.4] and parameters [1.3.6.1.2.1.25.4.2.1.5] to find the unique match. This template will be supported by VG v2.70 or above. [OIDs: Memory - 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.5.1.1.2, CPU - 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.5.1.1.1]

Prerequisites

SNMP should be enabled in end device and device should support HOST-RESOURCES-MIB.mib OIDs and SNMP credentials should be attached against the device in portal.

How to Apply: This template will ask user for 3 input parameters while assigning it to a device –

Name
User friendly name for a process to uniquely identify the process in graph and alert.
Example: MySQL

Match Criteria
Process match criteria. Possible values are - exact, contain or regex.
Example: if you use “contain” it searches all processes that contain “mysqld”.

Match String
Process search string (case sensitive). Provide an unique string to match the required process.
Example: mysqld

Metric Parameters

Metric Parameters
ParameterDescription
Frequency
  • Frequency is the interval in which you want to probe and collect metric data from the target device/resource
  • Frequency is defined in minutes (min).
  • Warning ThresholdIf the metric value satisfies the condition defined along with Warning Threshold value, then a notification is sent to the user.
    Critical ThresholdIf the metric value satisfies the condition defined along with Critical Threshold value, then a notification is sent to the user.
    AlertThe alert value can be set to either Yes or No. If it is Yes, then an alert message is sent to the user.
