What is prIndex?
This object serves as a unique reference identifier for each monitored process on a host system in UCD-SNMP (University of California, Davis SNMP). It links process monitoring data across related MIB tables so operators can track CPU, memory, and status for specific processes. Network administrators use this to retrieve per-process statistics via SNMP queries.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.2.1.1 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> UCD-SNMP-MIB::prIndex
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.2.1.1.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> UCD-SNMP-MIB::prIndex.1

Create custom SNMP monitor using the UCD-SNMP-MIB::prIndex OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Unix/Linux servers running the Net-SNMP (net-snmp/snmpd) agent (CPU/memory/disk/process-table status) from a single console.
