=head1 NAME

snmp__processes - Munin plugin to monitor the number of processes
on an SNMP device.

=head1 APPLICABLE SYSTEMS

Any SNMP-capable device that reports the
HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrSystemProcesses.0 OID.

=head1 CONFIGURATION

As a rule SNMP plugins need site specific configuration.  The default
configuration (shown here) will only work on insecure sites/devices.

   [snmp_*]
	env.version 2
        env.community public

In general SNMP is not very secure at all unless you use SNMP version
3 which supports authentication and privacy (encryption).  But in any
case the community string for your devices should not be "public".

Please see 'perldoc Munin::Plugin::SNMP' for further configuration
information.

=head1 INTERPRETATION

The total number of processes currently operating on the system.

=head1 MIB INFORMATION

This plugin requires support for the HOST-RESOURCES-MIB (RFC 2790).  It
reports the contents of the hrSystemProcesses OID.

=head1 MAGIC MARKERS

  #%# family=snmpauto
  #%# capabilities=snmpconf

=head1 BUGS

None known.

Could be extended to report the value of hrSystemMaxProcesses if it
exists.
