Overview
The Process Monitor is a custom FME transformer that monitors running processes on your system, waiting until processes matching a specific name reach a defined threshold or until a timeout occurs. Designed primarily for coordinating asynchronous workflows, it allows you to ensure prerequisite tasks have completed before continuing execution.
This transformer is particularly valuable when using WorkspaceRunner with asynchronous execution enabled, as it can pause the workflow until all child processes have completed. The transformer provides visual and audible notifications upon completion and logs monitoring status to the FME log.
Key features include configurable process name targeting, adjustable checking intervals, timeout protection, and automated notifications. It's an essential tool for managing complex parallel processing workflows and ensuring proper sequence of operations in resource-intensive FME tasks.
