1. Re: How to monitor a set of process (cron, ssh, ntp, etc) in a large number of linux VMs in vRops.
You may want to use this software blueprint I built that automates the EpOps installation and configuration process in Linux VMs. You'll need a vRA Enterprise license to use software components, however. From there, it's a matter of automating the process addition into vROps for that endpoint, and I don't know if the APIs yet support that ability. If they do, that could be another software component assuming you have the license.

Hi ,
Thanks for pointing me to the software blueprint. I would explore this.
However , Installing & configuring Epops agent is not the problem
I am specifically looking for a way to automate adding processes to monitor
Thanks,

Yeah, I understand what you're asking to do, I just don't know that the vROps API covers that ability right now. I'll dig around and see how close you might be able to get, however.

1 person found this helpfulYes, vRops API has the ability to automate this process. I configured it in my environment and blogged here vRops: How to Monitor Linux Process Automatically – via Rest API - nxgcloud
Need to test further more and see if there is a better way to do it.
Thanks,

This is really good to know, and thanks for writing it up! I should like to test this in my lab.
