I would suggest that you look at the net-snmp package that comes with Linux (although it may not be installed by default!). This is the open-source SNMP agent. The official website for the package is www.net-snmp.org. This agent will allow you to specify how instances of any process that should be running on the system. It does by matching the string you supply with the names of the running processes on your system. I believe it has an example for httpd in the default config. It can be configured to do much more... If you are collecting SNMP data on the Linux servers already, you are probably running the net-snmp agent. It will also allow sub-agents to connect to the agent for custom MIB implementation. If this sounds like a good fit for you, consult the man page for the net-snmp application snmpconf (1) which will walk you thru configuring your agent. # net-snmp-config --configure-options This will tell you how your agent was configured when compiled. # net-snmp-config --snmpconfpath This will tell you where the agent will look for it's configuration files (formatted like $PATH).
