Hi, I would like to monitor several w3wp process memory usage per application pool. I have several Application pools running on IIS and I would like to monitor the w3wp process of each one for memory usage and alert on threshold. Is it possible?
Many Thanks, Rotem

Hello,
I'm afraid this is not possible with PRTGs default sensors, but please have a look at the following articles (and the links in them):

Hello,
You can use the "Windows Process Sensor" to monitor a certain process and it's system usage. The sensor is described on the following page: https://www.paessler.com/manuals/prtg/wmi_process_sensor.
