I am ignorant of the inner-workings of net-snmp, so forgive any
potential ignorance here.

 

We have several processes that we need to monitor for existence. These
processes all have the same full-path (executable), but different
instances are invoked, and they are distinguished only via their
command-line arguments. The process monitoring section of the snmpd.conf
man page states that processes are monitored as they would appear in 'ps
-e', which doesn't show cmdline args.

 

Doing a raw, cummulative count on the number of these processes running
at any given time is not feasible. They are constantly started and
stopped on their own individual schedules. We need a way to treat
"/some/path/binary -c arg1" and "/some/path/binary -c arg2" as two
completely different, trackable entities, and have them monitored. 

 

Is this possible?

 

I am not a member of the list. Please use my From: address for
responses. Thanks!
