Process monitor
The process monitor is used to check specific characteristics of a process. MonitorMagic will
create a single process monitor for every process you choose to monitor. Creating multiple
process monitors generates multiple monitored objects. They can be managed together or on an
individual basis.
When multiple instances are running of the same process, MonitorMagic will automatically create
new monitors for each process instance. Example: Suppose you have a process monitor
checking if process notepad is running. At a certain moment, the notepad process is not running.
In this case, you have a single monitor and the monitor window looks like this:
No suppose, that the notepad application is started for four times, e.g. four instances of the
notepad process are running. When MonitorMagic updates the single process monitor, it will find
all the instances and dynamically create new process monitors for all four instances as shown in
the picture below.
You can create process monitors directly or by using a monitor policy. It is recommended to
create process monitors by using monitor policies.

This section describes how you specify process monitors for a monitor policy. The procedure to
create a process monitor directly is very similar. To start, activate the monitor policies window,
