Process whithout a name
I have a process in RHEL 5.3 that has no name?!?
I saw it in glance as
It seems like there is no command behind the pid.
In ps -ef the CMD column is empty....
The process is the child of init (1), and is run under one of the users in the server (not root).
Any idea how it can happen ?

Re: Process whithout a name
I use a stand alone lan so posting outputs is a bit problematic.
the ps -ef | grep PID looks like :
user 28197 1 1 Apr27 ? 00:07:47
and thats it.
I checked the top commnad and it does sees the command name.
How can it be that glance and ps -ef dowsnt see any thing but top does ?

Re: Process whithout a name
you can use
ps -p 1234 -o args,comm
(with 1234 as your pid) to see more of the process.

Re: Process whithout a name
Do a "ps -ef > ps_out", and analyze the output with "cat -tv ps_out". Maybe the program runs with a name of a nonprinting character.
Unix operates with beer.
