lsof problems on hpux 11.11 (11iv1)

[Jon M Zellhoefer]

I believe I have the latest version of lsof available, but on any of my 11.11 systems, if I try to run it against a filesystem, it core dumps. Has anyone else run into this? Does anyone know what I need to do to get it running? I've attached the version information below - also a sample output.

Thanks in advance!

You are probably running the 32-bit version on a 64-bit box. Kernel intrusive applications (like lsof) are the exceptions to 32-bit code running on 64-bit boxes. You need to download the source and compile it. It's a very easy build.

Hi Jon,

LSOF is *very* CPU specific.
It's not enough that you be OS-specific - you have to be CPU-specific.
You can find mult. threads here for all flavors.

My 2 cents,
Jeff

Thanks Guys!

One of the other threads in here had a link to what I needed.

The version at the hpux.cs.utah.edu is 32bit. The other link listed in this thread is for the 64bit version.
