How many types of process entity do exist?

fousseyni_bouar — Thu, 18 May 2023 15:37:27 GMT

Hello,

I want to write a custom plugin. The only purpose of this plugin will be to call (select statement) the database and display a binary result (0 or 1).

I would like to know what kind of entity I must choose. Indeed, the only type, I have seen in the documentation is PROCESS_GROUP_INSTANCE.

Best Regards,

Fousseyni B.

Hi Bouare,

You are now able to use the "HOST" entity as well as the PROCESS_GROUP_INSTANCE entity, meaning you can now associate your custom plugin with the overall host it is running on, instead of only the Process Group Instance you associate it to.

As far as I know, these are the only 2 entity types you can use when creating a custom OneAgent plugin.

Cheers,
Jonathan
