[SA-list] Process Monitoring Question

[Harrington, John]

Before I ask my question, I should report that I was finally able to find away to both list and monitor the NT processes.  You may remember a post a while back where I was unable to even view the drop-down list of processes.  After a LOT of investigation, it turned out that the Remote Registry service was disabled in Win2K and (even locally and not remotely), with that service off, you cannot view/monitor the process.  I’m happy to report that enabling it did the trick.  (It was disabled by our Info Security folks as a risk.)   My question:  We need to monitor a Coldfusion MX process (JRun) that doesn’t actually die, it just freezes.  Setting the check to “less than one instance” will only work if the process actually dies, which it almost never does.  It does, however, reach a certain amount of memory usage, like 700,000K, at which point it freezes and users receive a JRun error page.  Is there a way to monitor the memory used by a process rather than whether the instance is simply running or not?   Appreciate your ideas!   John H.
