How can I monitor the status of the syslog-ng. I would like to know if it is in the process server.
Is it a windows box? Do you mean is the program running? This is probably already in the probe thread but here it is again…
Make a function, use the function in a probe.
This function finds “notepad++.exe” in the task list of a windows computer.
Name: find_notepad
Description: Find the arrray index to notepad or return False
Code: if(array_size(oid_column(“1.3.6.1.2.1.25.4.2.1.2”,10,29)), array_find(oid_column(“1.3.6.1.2.1.25.4.2.1.2”,10,29),“notepad++.exe”),“False”)
This probe uses the above function to determine if notepad++ is running also it will let you know if the host us unreachable.
Name: notepad
Type: function
Available: find_notepad()<>“False”
error: if(find_notepad()<>“False”,if(find_notepad()<>-1, “”, “Warning: notepad not running”), “Failed to read running programs”)
There is not anything in value or unit since there is no reason to graph it.
