A windows device has the following alarms "Process set contains 0 running processes: Process Watcher
Using regex '^[Pp]w\.exe'
All Processes have stopped since the last model occurred"

Could you please inform me about

Hi,

This is an alert to tell you that the processes you are monitoring that match the regular expression '^[Pp]w\.exe' are not running. So, when you modeled the Windows target machine, one or more processes were found that match the regex. At some point during the monitoring phase and before the next model is run, the process(es) stopped. It should be about every 6 hours that zenoss runs a remodel. That process set will no longer appear as a component after you either manually run a model or allow the automatic model to run if those processes are not running at model time.

See http://blog.zenoss.com/2014/04/use-process-sets-to-monitor-more-efficien... for more information.

Thanks
Dave Bouchillon
