#
# Plugin to monitor CPU usage, for a selected set of processes. Tested on Linux.
#
# Author: Stefan Osterlitz
# Based on work of Erik Cederstrand
#
# Usage: Place in /usr/local/etc/munin/plugins/ (or link it there  using ln -s)
#        Add this to your /ur/local/etc/munin/plugin-conf.d/plugins.conf:

#       [process_*]
#       env.procs httpd java
#
#    httpd and java being a list of the processes to monitor. You may use regex expressions for grep, but watch their conversion to field names.
#		 ps options may vary.

#
# Parameters understood:
#
#       config   (required)
#       autoconf (optional - used by munin-config)
