Actually, I think you just need to add the "TRACK=id" option to your analysis.cfg file for the proc you want to track. Just look at the man page, http://xymon.com/xymon/help/manpages/man5/analysis.cfg.5.html, for proper syntax.

You could write an external script to grep the analysis.cfg for the word PROC, pipe it into a wc -l to get a count and send that to Xymon. Should be easy enough to set that up as an NCV graph.

I don't think there's any way to do it without writing an external script though.

Paul,

I read your post as wanting to track the total number of processes you had monitored. Having seen Galens post I realised that wanting to track the number of instances of a particular process made more sense. I'm glad Galen read it the right way for you.

Thanks,

            That's what I was looking for. And I knew that, I've

already used it, can't believe I didn't remember this.

Paul.
