lsof on HP ??

[Ron Cornwell]

I have a programmer who has come from a sun background who would like to use a command like lsof on solaris. The command lists files and sockets opened by a process. I have found a copy of it on the HPUX porting site but would like to know if there is anything by default already on HPUX. Thanks in Advance.

no I use lsof and find it the best tool for the job.

Hi there.
It is not a standard tool, but you can get it for HP-UX. And it is a good tool.

The netstat -an command will show active ports as well of the state of the socket but not as useful as lsof and glance too maybe of some limiited use ? It comes with a 60 day trial license, whereas lsof is free

you have already found THE default tool at THE default site ;-)

In my opinion, lsof is the best program, u no need to search for any other tool....

Hi Ron:

There is no delivered component that comes close to the utility of lsof. The bad news is that if you need a 64-bit version (the 32-bit version will not run on 64-bit 11x) you will need to download the source and compile/link it. This is not a difficult task. The 32-bit binaries are available from the Porting Centers.

Hello Ron,

if you prefer to get your (64bit-) copy of "lsof" from a
CDROM issued by HP, get the ITO/VPO/OVO CDROM
and look into "/opt/OV/contrib/OpC/". There are both
the 32bit- and the 64bit-lsof.

HTH,
