Issue/Introduction

• Trying to monitor similar processes on a Linux server.
• There are two processes:

ora_smon_ABC and ora_smon_ABC_123

• The string I am using is .*smon_ABC
• Is this regex string proper or am I missing something?

Environment

Release:
Component: VPMGEN

Resolution

• Regex .*smon_ABC would match both processes ora_smon_ABC_123 and ora_smon_ABC yielding the -2.
• Use the following regex will explicitly match both strings:

^ora_smon_ABC_123$

and

^ora_smon_ABC$
