Use glance (if you have it) to drill down to the process level or use the xpg4 ver. of ps(1).

We are probably losing something in translation here but ig I want to see the status of processes, I use the ps command.

UNIX95=1 ps -f -o comm,pid,state

The "state" column is the one of most interest.
If it ain't broke, I can fix that.
