Issue/Introduction

Customer is using procesess to monitor sshd and other processes but cannot isolate all of the sshd processes.

Environment

• processes probe 4.82, 4.85
• DX UIM 23.4

Resolution

• sshd process doesn't show up when pressing the Test button in processes probe v4.82.

• Upgraded processes probe to v4.85 GA.

• The sshd proceses had the same command line path but different arguments.

• So for the sshd processes we used 'binary path' option to diff and 'track by process id' option for 2 instances of the sshd process, as well as Expected instance <= 2 and the profile was created successfully and working as expected.
