Hello,
vmware-hostd
sshd
vmware-vpxa
vmware-webAccess
vmware-watchdog
vmware-vmkauthd
vmkload_app for each resource pool you have.
Those would be the big ticket processes to watch.

What sorts of things are you looking to do by monitoring the SC port? I guess I've never heard of monitoring the SC except for if it was up or down.

Well, from the SC I can report on the vm's and their current state, overrall disk utilization, VM CPU and network usage. As for the procs, vxpa and watchdog, I guess any procs that would impact the management of ESX.
You know, all the things that make the business rest a little bit easier
