Issue/Introduction

alias setting with process within APMIA systemEdge not working Trying to set up monitoring for servers using the Infrastructure Agent. 

Processes - Is it possible to set an alias for processes? We currently have them as the actual processes running and cannot set aliases for them.

introscope.agent.hostmonitor.profiles.localhost.linux.groups=process

introscope.agent.hostmonitor.profiles.localhost.linux.process.name.filter=ALL

introscope.agent.hostmonitor.profiles.localhost.linux.process.argument.filter=named::/usr/sbin/name1 -u name1 -c /etc/name1.conf -4,Probe::./netprobe.linux.7036,postfix::/usr/libexec/postfix/master1 -w

Resolution

This is the current design limitation of using the alias for process monitoring.

You can either monitor process by name or by arguments but not both.

You can not use the combination of two when setting up alias for processes.

The name filter and argument filter do not work at same time. 
If name filter property is set then argument filter property will not work. 

Only the process arguments need to be set in the argument filter property. Example below:

introscope.agent.hostmonitor.profiles.localhost.linux.process.argument.filter=testarg::--switched-root --system --deserialize 17,testarg1::--daemon
