Unix /MPE Server "System is Hung" indicator

[nfaber]

I need to create a "system is hung indicator" for Sun and HPUX Servers that check for a hung process, sends and SNMP notification if it finds one and restarts the process if possible. Once I get it working, I need to port it to MPE.

Has anyone done this or know an efficient wat to do this?

How do you determine if a process is 'hung' ps -efx ...

Output your result to a file, and compare. Or store results in memory, and if no change occurs consider process hung, kill pid, and restart
