    Monitor Windows processes by PID?

    Hey guys,
    My use case is the following:

    I want to monitor a certain process on Windows hosts, and show its memory usage. This process has several instances (with the same name). I can of course show the sum memory usage for all the instances using something like:

    Code:
    proc_info[process.exe,wkset,sum]
    But I want to see memory usage of each instance. For this I'm guessing I need to use Zabbix low-level discovery to discover processes by PID, and create item prototypes for each discovered PID. I'll then use regex to filter just the process I want to monitor.

    If this is the right solution, how would I go about doing this? or if anyone knows of an existing solution, I would love to know.

    Thanks!

      I've got the same problem here. Is there any solution to get process by description?
