What is prCount?
This OID reports how many instances of the named process are currently running on the host. An admin compares this live count against the configured prMin and prMax bounds to confirm the monitored service is healthy.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.2.1.5 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> UCD-SNMP-MIB::prCount
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.2.1.5.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> UCD-SNMP-MIB::prCount.1
