Hostproc provides detailed information about processes running on a host over SNMP. The information is grouped in a way similar to the ps(1) output. Additional aggregating features allow the administrator to provide summary statistics for processes matching some criteria and to exclude such processes from the detailed output. The latter feature can be used, in particular, to separate statistics for processes running on the host from those that are run within docker containers.

The program is built as a sub-agent for Net-SNMP snmpd and is Linux-specific.
