Hi All,
We want to monitor some process which is running on a particular server as the number of processes are huge so we prepare script which giving me list of process which are down using generic execution monitor.

Hi all,
Any suggestions????
Hi
the generic executor monitor plugin basically executes your remote command and will then return a success measure on whether output of that executed command matches your regular expression. You can then chart this success status.

Hi Jaydatt,
A monitoring plugin can only return measures to the dynaTrace collector/server. Those measures need to be numeric so we can create a time series and chart the measure over time. In your case that would mean instead of the generic execution plugin build a custom one that returns multiple measures, one for each of the apps you monitor. That measure could then have a numeric value, e.g. how many instances of that app are currently running. That way you can not only show a snapshot of the values but have a history over time and use this for alerting, defining incidents based of upper/lower thresholds.
Right now with v4.1 you have to define the list of measures your plugin returns static, with the next release v4.2 we also support dynamic measures.
