CheckProcState: Documentation and functionality ambiguous with respect to sensing excess but not absence of process

[auadfh]

In CheckProcState it says that process=state where process is the name of the executable and state is either started or stopped.

In the example down the bottom, however, it says:

CheckProcState MaxWarnCount=4 MaxCritCount=10 ShowAll notepad.exe=running

I've been trying to monitor for only an excess of processes using "started" as the state. The process not running is ok.

So either:

• running is wrong..
• it's a synonym for started
• it's like started but allows for the process to not actually be running by default unless limit set?

Either way, clarification in doco would be useful.

Sorry.

It should be started.

Fixed.
