Hello,

I am running Zenoss Enterprise 2.1 on RHEL4.

I am trying to configure Zenoss to watch for certain processes running on a 
Linux machine.  I am trying to implement 2 trivial cases to prove the concept 
(one which i expect to work, the other I expect to fail and alert). I am new to 
my environment, and new to Zenoss, but from previous configurations, it looks 
like this is all that needs to be done:

create a new Process definition (in this case, under a custom Process organizer 
called 'Tomcat')

under this organizer, I added 2 new process definitions named 'tomcat' and 
'bogus'

Here is the detail for each Process definition:
tomcat
--------
name: tomcat
regex: java.*tomcat
monitor: true
ignore parms: false

bogus
-------
name: bogus
regex: bogus
monitor: true
ignore parms: false

Now, on the OS tab for the target device, i can add both of these process 
definitions to the OS Process

The problem:
both processes show a good status.  I would expect the bogus definition to 
fail.  It doesn't seem to matter, zenoss thinks that both the tomcat and bogus 
processes are running on my target device.

SNMP is configured and working properly on the device.

does anyone have solid instructions for defining OS Processes that need to be 
monitored?
