Hi all,

Context: I am building a monitoring tool that will monitor a set of  
processes (list of processes from a config file). I am interested in  
knowing the exit status of each of these processes the system  
monitors. Depending on the exit status (and signals, if any, that  
caused the exit), the tool will take further action.

One approach: I am thinking of opening a pipe to "truss" (or its  
variants) for each of processes to be monitored and look for the exit  
status.

Is there a better way to simulate a "silent attachment to a running  
process" to be notified of the exit status?

Could DPCL help in any fashion?

Thanks,
Sasi.
