I just applied the FMC template to an FMC instance I created recently, and doing so triggered several spurious Problems in Zabbix:

In my stock FMC deployment, several of those processes (fmscwpc, fmsased, and fmwipd) seem to be running under the fmsase user instead of the fmserver user. The patch below -- including the fmsase user as a candidate for the the ps command in the "All FMS Processes" item -- caused the relevant processes to be reported correctly as running on the server.

It's unclear to me whether Progressive Backups / the fmsib process are still a feature on FMC, but if not, it may be worth removing that Trigger from the FMC template too. Since I didn't know, I didn't propose anything to that effect here.

Many thanks for the pull request. We are looking into it now.

You're right on both accounts – fmsase user is needed for the fmscwpc, fmsased, and fmwipd processes for FMC, and fmsib (Progressive Backups) doesn't run on FMC. But if we add the fmsase user to the MacFMC template, the ps command will fail on macOS (because the fmsase user doesn't exist there). So we will close this pull request without merging it and will incorporate your suggestion in a different way – by moving these items/triggers from the MacFMC template into the Mac and FMC templates.

Thanks again for the feedback.
