| Subject: | Exclude specific process on server |

I have a server where frequently new mysqld processes are spawned and killed by different users. The process is defined as monitored in the global process configuration because on other servers it is needed for the system mysqld service. How can I exclude a server from the monitoring of this specific process New instances of the process keep showing up and generate events, even after I set them to not monitored on the server.
The following I do not consider a suitable solution:
- Disable process monitoring completely on the server
- Remove the mysqld process definition
Thanks,
Anselm

The best thing to do is to make sure the regular expression you're using to find the mysqld processes is generic enough so that it captures all of the mysqld processes as a single Zenoss process. How you do this varies depending on if you're running Zenoss before or after version 4.2.5.
Then the trick is to disable monitoring of the process on this problematic server and lock the process from deletion. This prevents the process from being removed then re-added by modeling. It is this removal and addition that's causing your configuration of disabled monitoring to be lost.
