cpqOsSysProcesses
Module: CPQOS-MIB
OID (symbolic): CPQOS-MIB::cpqOsSysProcesses
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.232.19.2.2.6
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-only
Description: Processes is the number of processes in the computer at the time of data collection. Notice that this is an instantaneous count, not an average over the time interval. Each process represents the running of a program.
What is cpqOsSysProcesses?
This read-only integer reports the number of processes running on the computer at the time of data collection, as an instantaneous count rather than an average. An admin watches this for abnormal growth that might indicate a process-spawning bug or a runaway script. For example, a steadily climbing cpqOsSysProcesses count over time without a corresponding increase in workload could indicate zombie or orphaned processes accumulating.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.232.19.2.2.6 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> CPQOS-MIB::cpqOsSysProcesses
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.232.19.2.2.6.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> CPQOS-MIB::cpqOsSysProcesses.1
SNMPv3 example:
snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> cpqOsSysProcesses.1
