process status alert

This alert monitors the MonitorD, Lock Manager, and all processes. Every site has the entire set of PID sources except for current site. This does not have the MonitorD because the PID alert runs in the MonitorD.

Clicking the Source field's button opens the Select PID Alert Source dialog box.

Select the nodes to indicate which ones are to be monitored. When selecting, if the node has any sub-nodes, the sub-nodes are automatically selected. If any of the sub-nodes are cleared, then the parent node is automatically cleared.

The Source field is read-only and shows the configured PID source.

{SOURCE {{[{SITE sitename} ]{processtype processname}} …}} 
  • sitename is the name of the site in with the process/daemon is found. This key is optional. If not specified, then the default is the current site.
  • processtype is DAEMON or PROCESS.
  • processname is:
    • If processtype is DAEMON, then processname is hcilockmgr or hcimonitord. This is only available for another site.
    • If processtype is PROCESS, then processname is the hciengine process name.

Multiple SOURCE values are supported for this alert type.

The only operations for this alert are == or ! =. The only values to be compared are "dead" and "running."

Note:  If you are using an old alert file that contains any unknown statuses, then when modified it is saved as "dead."
