You could always ask for the feature in ESALPS, since it makes the snmp request.
That's an approach that is very likely to be effective. Without doubt Chris knows how to give us some sample data and explain what he would like to measure and monitor. I believe we collect enough information already about the individual processes that we can group them and report or monitor total cpu usage of the group or the number of processes in it. Because CPU usage measured inside Linux needs to be corrected for virtualization effects, it makes sense to do that in ESALPS rather than in Linux. The built-in monitoring of net-snmp is afaik restricted to just counting the number of processes with the same name. When they get created like this you might check that there is no process named ora_s12 (to see there's only 11 started). But when Oracle is starting this processes, I have a slight feeling they will also check their presence already and act upon problems.
