Linux Zombie Process Count

Question

This comes up occasionally as a customer request - can we count zombie processes on Linux servers?

Yes we can...

KYNDEH

This DataSource relies on SSH connectivity to the server, and therefore the Linux SSH&nbsp;PropertySource (in core), and once connected runs command:

'ps axo pid=,stat='

...and then runs through the table counting all the occurrences of 'Z' in the stat column.
