[collectd] processes not getting picked up

[Tom Hanstra]

I'm using the processes plugin and for most processes that I want to track,
it is working fine. But on the server I'm tracking, there are a number of
Oracle processes which, from a ps -ef standpoint look like this:

oracle19 21232     1  0 Oct20 ?        00:00:02 ora_w015_aleph23
oracle19 21642     1  0 09:05 ?        00:00:00 ora_w006_aleph23
oracle19 21845     1  0 Oct19 ?        00:00:03 ora_w00b_aleph23
oracle19 21965     1  0 Oct11 ?        00:00:13 ora_w00n_aleph23
oracle19 23284     1  0 Oct21 ?        00:00:00 ora_w00y_aleph23
oracle19  2732     1  0 Aug12 ?        00:09:05 ora_pmon_aleph23

For some reason, adding the line:

  Process ''ora_pmon_aleph23"

is not finding the process. Nothing that I've tried seems to be able to
pick that process up.

Any idea why that doesn't work?  Any workarounds that would catch it?  I'm
trying to monitor to make sure Oracle is up and running.

Thanks,
Tom
