Hi all,
Before to buy 4 unilimited lisenses plus 1 fusion ... i would like to know if it's possible to monitor several services with the same name on the same Windows servers ... see my screenshot below to understand ...

because i need that all processes are started in the same time ... if one is missing, it's a real problem ...
bye and thanks for your help.

Would it suffice to have a count of the number of processes by that name? If you're using NSClient++, this looks like it would do the trick.

It looks like there are some community plugins that might do this:

http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Pl ... es/details

We haven't documented or tested any of these plugins, so you might have to do some testing and see if any of these meet your needs.
