Is this for Windows and Linux (Redhat) Oracle DBs or just Windows?

Exactly...it seems it takes that as the name if the process name is already there. .

Ok I have added the process with the subprocess command line filter but it seems you can't have 2 processes monitored with the same process name. I'm going to put a case in. I have PROBLEM -subprocess1 monitored and the other monitors the correct process but in SAM its name shows up as PROCESS MONITOR

Thanks, I set it to 140 - 152, I think it will work, not sure how often that number gets updated as the processes start to fade...

Thanks, I imported it. It's gonna alert if I enable it. So something seems off. Basically we have 6 servers that run 200 of these processes. When a server gets below 150, that's when we have issues, so that's what I'm trying to accomplish. 

hmmm

Here is something from 8 years ago. I will read into it later, seems like a lot! thwack.solarwinds.com/.../effective-monitoring-and-alerting-on-running-copies-of-the-processes

Yeah I didn't see the count in the alerting criteria. So I agree, it may have to be a manual thing and that's where I reach my limit of knowledge. Appreciate the help.

That's what I'm kinda asking haha. I haven't done it before. Just looking for the best way to do it.

Yeah I have it monitored, and it shows the amount of processes that is running (it's one master process) but it has 200 pids. I want to know when it gets below 150.

You da man. It's working!

Ok cool. So I would use the actual application ID for each instance that is assigned to the 4 nodes and not the template ID?

How do I find the component and application IDs?

Thanks I will take a look at this Monday. Appreciate it.

Thanks. I will shoot you a PM tomorrow to see what works.

I have them together. Now just have to figure out what the trigger and actions need to be.

If I'm already monitoring, I shouldn't need to add it to this monitor as well though right?

Ok thanks, I didn't know that. I had put 200 in the response time haha. I removed that and it's showing green and up on all 4 servers. Now I'm not sure what you mean by... [quote userid="254580"…

I did try that earlier today but having some trouble getting it to work correctly, the API poller gets a 200 and you can monitor that value, I don't see that in the HTTP monitor?

Yes I am monitoring the server and service. I did see some of this. I have 4 servers, they all have issues once and a while with that service. So the only thing I'm not sure about is if I create the API poller on all servers, then create the alert that if that poller comes back with anything but 200, restart the service…

Ok so the alerts work, so I will be able to set this up to reboot, power off/on the guest. Does anyone know if this is done through the VMware tools? Sometimes when this happens, when I try to reboot in Vcenter it fails because the system isn't responding...same as when I try to reboot via SNMP, it just doesn't work. So…

Yeah I've setup the alert on the CPU Load, it should correspond with the component being critical and I should get emails for both. If they do correspond I will then try the reboot vm portion.

Thanks, I don't have that option. It must be because it's based on the process going critical (see attached vm1) I will test to see if I can set it up via CPU load, etc.
