inodes question

[joe_91]

Hi:

What is the command in HP-UX to display the inodes that are connected to an open process?

Please Help.

Thanks

Joe.

fuser is the standard tool but a much better option is the lsof (list open files) command available from any of the HP-UX Porting Centre's.

Thanks. would you happen to know where the lsof for 10.20 would be?

Thanks

Joe.

Hi Joe,

HP-UX doesn't have that built in, but the lsof utility can do it as follows

lsof -p XXXX

where XXXX=PID & the outpout will contain a NODE column which is the inode of the file or directory entry.

lsof is available here:

glance

Select process (s option)and then choose open files(F option)

lsof tool

lsof -p "pid"

Unless someone has an archived depot, you are going to have to download the source and compile it from the same Website. The good news is that is a really straightforward build.

I think 32 bit binaries will work on 10.20.

Which inodes? vxninodes or HFS inodes?

[Jeff Schussele]

The actual filesystem inode - be it HFS or vxfs.
What you'd get with an ls -i filename command
