[Bigsister-general] Problem montitoring process with procs - Big Sister reports "no prcesses"


Hi,

I am trying to monitor process on several systems and I am
seeing the same problem.

I have the following line in uxmon-net
localhost       pscomm="/sbin/ps -e" proc="httpd"  min=1 
perf=1 item="HTTP" procs

I see a red status under the HTTP heading  displayed on the
status web page and  "httpd (no process)" in the history
page.


However ps lists many instances of httpd on the monitored
system
suppressed:/home/young> ps -e | grep httpd
 8181 ?        00:00:00 httpd
 8182 ?        00:00:00 httpd
 8183 ?        00:00:00 httpd
 8184 ?        00:00:00 httpd
 8185 ?        00:00:00 httpd
 8186 ?        00:00:00 httpd
 8191 ?        00:00:00 httpd
 8192 ?        00:00:00 httpd
 8193 ?        00:00:00 httpd

If I now change the uxmon entry to monitor cron, inetd or
some other system process process, the problem disappears 
e.g 
localhost       pscomm="/sbin/ps -e" proc="cron"  min=1 
perf=1 item="HTTP" procs

This is occuring on two different platforms (linux and Tru64
UNIX).

If anyone can provide an explanation or a resolution to this
problem, it would be greatly appreciated. 

Thank you for taking the time to read this post

Regards,
Mark  Young
