Process Monitor Plugin

Process Monitoring

HQ provides a Process service which can collect memory, cpu and other metrics common to all platforms. The metrics are collected using SIGAR with PTQL to identify the process. Process metrics can be used within other plugins, provided the plugin (or user) is able to identify the process using PTQL. The common set of process metrics is in the pdk/plugins/process-metrics.xml file which can be included by the xml plugin descriptor:

Or select metrics can be copy-and-pasted from pdk/plugins/process-metrics.xml into a plugin descriptor.
