NixHostProcessInstance topology object

On UNIX®, instances of NixHostProcessInstance are used instead of HostProcessInstance. These topology objects extend HostProcessInstance with a few more details that can be captured on UNIX platforms.

Metric Description1

The full command line used to launch the executable.

Linux®

The time the process instance was created. (date)

Linux

The full path to the executable.

Linux

The session id of the process.
