Process id's of programs which opens a file.

[Amith_2]

Hello,

I would like to know whether there is any command or method to find out which all processes are opening a recovery file.

All my programs access a recovery file while posting transactions , i would like to know the process id of the process which has opened the file and has written details into it.

Can any one help me out in this

Hi,
you can download lsof from:
http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Sysadmin/lsof-4.77/

# lsof /home/godronpw/usage.c
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
f.sh 29050 godronpw 0u REG 64,0x5 367 75 /home/godronpw/usage.c
sleep 29062 godronpw 0u REG 64,0x5 367 75 /home/godronpw/usage.c

lsof can also be used for port usage etc.
