Re^4: Working With The Process Table (AIX)

Anonymous Monk,
I am not ignoring the "fact", I am stating that the source you indicate provides this "fact" actually says no such thing. You seem to be inferring something not actually said in the README.aix. You are correct in that it is not directly a perl question though I am writing a perl library and would like access to this information. I have just received an email from the IBM author of the nmon() utility and have decided on a combination of

getprocs64()
/proc/<pid>/psinfo and /proc/<pid>/cwd
ps <options> <pid>

Depending on what information the user actually wants.

Cheers - L~R

This is something I've been looking for a nicer way to do, having been burned more than once by the `ps -ef\|grep name\|grep -v grep` method. Thanks for sharing all this! I'm familiar with /proc (somewhat) and ps; how are you using getprocs64()?	[reply] [d/l]
