Hi,

Yes, the "Not Responding" is for applications not processes. Maybe it'd be
worthwhile having two different monitors there, that's for you to decide. I
think I might have found something that will work, without an agent. Still
investigating, I will let you know if I come up with anything workable.

Rgds,

The "not responding" message you can see is not for processes but for
application and is user dependant AND is only visible on the local system.
Probably the taskmananger (that's the one showing you all this info) is
checking the state of the different open windows and based on that is able
to give you the "not responding" message/info.

So from that I would say that it's not possible to remotly check for this
without the use of some kind of agent AND only for applications and not for
processes.

(we're however looking at some options to get/give more info (and have
better checks) on some typicaly process parameters (like CPU/memory/...)
without the use of the perfmon objects.  Important words "looking at")

Subject: [SA-list] Wishlist/Wishbook - NT process monitor modification

Hi,

Yet again I am looking for additional features (without meaning to seem
greedy ;)).

Does anyone besides me think it would be super-cool if SA could monitor NT
processes and generate alerts on "Not Responding"?

Tested the NT process monitor and, as I suspected, fount that it just checks
for the existance of the process.

I think I have a way to do it in Delphi (external error level check), but
it'd be so much nicer to have it built-in.

Possibly this is something that has already been looked at, I tried
searching the archive but I keep getting get a "Page Cannot Be Displayed"
error on the search.
