monitoring - Hyperic HQ- Monitor process statistics for 50+ processes on Linux machine

Is there an easy way to get metrics on all processes that
start with the letters XYZ? I have about 80 processes that I have to monitor
individually that all start with the prefix
XYZ.

I have created a query using the sigar
shell: ps State.Name.sw=XYZ, which will give me a list of the processes that I want.
What I need to do is define this list of processes through said query and collect and
track statistics from the Process service: href="http://support.hyperic.com/display/hypcomm/Process+service" rel="nofollow
noreferrer">http://support.hyperic.com/display/hypcomm/Process+service

What I need is 3 or 4 key statistics for each
of the XYZ processes defined by my query to show up as graphs in the web front
end.

Note: Hyperic HQ server is installed on a
windows machine and I'm monitoring a Linux box via an
agent.

Thanks,

Chris

Edit:
Here is my try at a plugin that may give me what I want, but it's not being
inventoried/detected by the Hyperic web UI. Simply pointing me to one of Hyperic's
tutorials won't do.
Thanks.
