6.4.3 Setting a value whose existence is to be monitored

To set a value whose existence you want to monitor:

1. Set the value whose existence is to be monitored.
   For example, if you want to monitor whether a particular process is running for PFM - Agent for Platform (Windows), you can specify the following settings:
   Record: Process Detail (PD)
   Field: Program
   Value: name-of-the-program-to-be-monitored^#
   # You can specify alphabetical characters (upper-case and lower-case). The system distinguishes between upper and lower-case characters. The specified program name does not need an extension. You can also use the wildcard character (*). For example, by specifying *AAA*, you can monitor any string that contains the substring AAA. To specify a backslash sign (\) immediately in front of a wildcard character in Value, you must specify \\.
   The following figure shows an example of these settings.

2. Click the Next > button.
   You are directed to the New Alarm Table > Action window.
   

Note:

The fields of data type time_t, timeval, and utime are not displayed in a Field because they cannot be used in the conditional expressions of the alarm.

To specify a backslash sign (\) immediately in front of a wildcard character in Value, you must specify \\.
