processPPID
Module: HP-UNIX
OID (symbolic): HP-UNIX::processPPID
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.1.4.2.1.4
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Description: Parent process ID.
What is processPPID?
The process ID of this process's parent. Walking the PPID chain from a runaway child process is how an admin traces it back to the shell, cron job, or daemon that spawned it.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.1.4.2.1.4 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> HP-UNIX::processPPID
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.1.4.2.1.4.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> HP-UNIX::processPPID.1
