I see two alternatives here. For a small number of specific processes,
you could modify the standard bb-procs.sh script to report those
processes under different names. You could also split those tests
out and create an external script to perform the same function.

The second option is to keep all the process reporting under the
default "procs" name, but filter the resulting alerts through a
custom paging script. That can then be used to direct alert
messages to different groups of recipients.

Cheers, Phil
