Not sure if this is what you meant, but CoMon only sees what's running on
the node, not which slices are instantiated or which ones are supposed to
be instantiated. Those latter two were actually part of Trumpet, and it was
useful to see which nodes had suffered some sort of weirdness during slice
instantiation.

I never quite figured out how to include that in CoMon, but it would clearly
be useful info.
