syslogMsgProcID

Module: SYSLOG-MSG-MIB

OID (symbolic): SYSLOG-MSG-MIB::syslogMsgProcID

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.192.1.2.1.8

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: DisplayString

Description: The procid of the SYSLOG message. A zero-length string indicates an unknown procid. The SYSLOG protocol specification constrains this string to printable US-ASCII code points.

What is syslogMsgProcID?

Reports the procid field of this syslog message, per RFC 5424, identifying the specific process instance that generated it; a zero-length string means unknown. Admins use this to distinguish messages from different instances or restarts of the same application, which is useful when troubleshooting a process that has crashed and restarted repeatedly. Seeing the syslogMsgProcID value change between consecutive messages from the same syslogMsgAppName could indicate the application process restarted.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.192.1.2.1.8
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> SYSLOG-MSG-MIB::syslogMsgProcID

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.192.1.2.1.8.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> SYSLOG-MSG-MIB::syslogMsgProcID.1
