The SystemEDGE agent can monitor any process or Windows service to check their running status or the value of a process attribute. You can configure the processes or services to monitor and the attributes to track by creating entries in the Process Monitor table of the Systems Management Empire MIB.
When you create an entry in the Process Monitor table, you set the polling interval, a regular expression indicating the process (or service) to monitor, comparison operator, threshold value, and severity, and the agent automatically determines the process ID and monitors the process attribute that you specify. The agent uses the provided threshold and severity value to determine the status of the process attribute, and it can aggregate the state of multiple monitors defined to derive overall object state.
For example, you can monitor a mission-critical process for system calls, and when they exceed a provided threshold, the agent adjusts the severity of the object and sends a state change trap. You also can monitor whether the process is running, and the agent can automatically restart a stopped process.
