Plugin(os::aix::local) - Mode(process): does not verbose processes list when using --verbose

[olivierjoly]

Bug report

When using /usr/lib/centreon/plugins//centreon_aix_local.pl --plugin=os::aix::local::plugin --mode=process with --verbose there is only this output
(OK|WARNING|CRITICAL): Number of current processes: 5 - 0 process(es) problem(s) detected.

I guess we should have the output with processes list when using --verbose but this is not the case

Quick description

When using /usr/lib/centreon/plugins//centreon_aix_local.pl --plugin=os::aix::local::plugin --mode=process with --verbose there is only this output
(OK|WARNING|CRITICAL): Number of current processes: 153 - 0 process(es) problem(s) detected.

I guess we should have the output with processes list when using --verbose but this is not the case

Another issue with this customized plugin, the --filter-arg option is missing even this was described in the template

[rchauvel]

Ok, we'll look into the --verbose to add process list. However with regards to filter-arg, this option does not currently exist in the template, and you can use EXTRAOPTIONS for this until we add it officially.

Hello,
Can we have a another way to workaround with EXTRAOPTION just to grab process name for the output?

[omercier]

Hi, indeed, you can add --filter-arg='regexp' in the value of the EXTRAOPTIONS macro.

Hello :)

Did @omercier 's answer help you solve the problem?

Hello :)

This issue should be solved with the 26.02 release.
