Thanks.  Dumb question: do you have a sample as to how one might
accomplish both the set/clear notifications for the process monitor:

Here's what I think I should do:

To trap when a process is in error, then look for prErrorFlag !=0: 
monitor -o prName -o prErrMessage "procTable" prErrorFlag == 0

To look for error-clear, then look for prErrorFlag == 0 (use -S to not
trigger on pre-exising preErrorFlags == 0 at startup):
monitor -S -o prName "procTable" prErrorFlag == 0

But when I do that I get this in my /var/log/snmpd.log:

error on subcontainer '' insert (-1)
error on subcontainer '' insert (-1)
/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf: line 78: Error: duplicate trigger name

So I'm guessing I can't have two monitors for the same "procTable" OID.

Any suggestions?

Also does the monitor expression syntax allow for logical OR or AND
conditionals e.g.
monitor "procTable" prErrorFlag !=0 && prNames == "sendmail"

Thanks again for your help!

Cheers,


JPS
