Hi

I am running long command in hp-xu

Ex:

# /appl/starcd.4.0.2/FLEXLM/10.8.0.7/hpux64_11.00-pa8000/bin/lmgrd -c /opt/flexlm/vendor

After execting this, I used "ps-ef" to see

root@lgapps:/ > ps -ef | grep starcd
root 4404 1 0 08:27:07 ? 0:00 /appl/starcd.4.0.2/FLEXLM/10.8.0.7/hpux64_11.00-pa8000/bin/l

here i am seeing only part of the command.

So how to see the Full compand path in "ps -ef"
like i have entered.

Hi:

With 11.0 you need patch PHCO_33267 to enable an extended (1024 byte) command output with the '-x' switch of 'ps' as Robert suggested. Otherwise, you will be limited to 64-characters.

In current releases the file '/etc/default/ps' can enable you to define the default command length you wish to report.

Regards!
