Identifying correct process names

Edit online

For process monitoring, it is important that you list the correct process names in the SMIT Add Process Application Monitor panel. You must use the processes that are listed in response to the ps -e command and not use the -f flag.

About this task

Any process that is started through a #!<path name> in the script must use the processes that are listed in response to the ps -e command. For example, the bsh command and the csh command.

To identify correct process names in your process list, complete the following steps:

Procedure

  1. Enter the following command:

    ps -e | awk '{print $4}' | sort -u >/tmp/list1

  2. Run the application controller start script.
  3. Enter the following command:

    ps -e | awk '{print $4}' | sort -u >/tmp/list2

  4. Compare the two lists by entering:

    diff list1 list2 | grep \>

Results

The result is a complete and accurate list of possible processes to monitor. You might choose not to include all of them in your process list.
