[Hyperic-hq-discuss] Specific Application Monitoring?

[Josh J. <jj...@gc...>]

Hello,
      I just recently installed Hyperic today and I already love it.  I took a few minutes to look around but I couldn't find information on monitoring an application so I thought I'd try here.  

My company relies on a mission critical web app that runs on an instance of java.exe in the Task Manager.  We had a recent issue with that process dying (which made our mission critical app unavailable until someone called to complain) and my CTO was all ready to pay over $4600 for a monitoring solution that would check to ensure that java.exe was still running.  Is there any way to get Hyperic to monitor current processes for a specific entry and alert you when it doesn't find it?

I'll keep searching but any assistance would be appreciated.


Thanks,

Josh
