ptree & rptree

[coollllllllllll]

Hi guys ,

i have two scripts with me for ptree and rptree.

I want an o/p same as of aix proctree "pid"  which gives a tree of all assiciated child pid's only.

i do not want to reverse trace till init.

In forum i have got ptree , but it does not display tree process as expected.

For ex:

if i login through a user id test

and run sqlplus

and when i grep for "sqlplus" pid what i get is only the below o/p ;

 28453                         qryusr  sqlplus

What i expect is , the user name with process name also to be appeared in this o/p.

For ex:

28453    /oracle/bin/sqlplus
   3645536    /usr/sbin/sshd 
      3919904    sshd: pol

Did you want the tree displayed from the child first?

ptree(1) on 11.31 gives:

$ ptree $$
928        /opt/ssh/sbin/sshd
 15283      sshd: foobar [priv]
  15285      sshd: foobar@pts/0
   15287      -ksh
    15307      ptree 15287

I expect is the user name with process name

You would need to capture that from the ps(1) output.  Or write a program to call pstat(2).

Can you please attach a copy of it so we don't have to start from scratch?  :-)

Hi ,

PFA both scripts

>both scripts

I'm still not sure what you want.

ptree.sh will start at the PID and go to all of its descendents.

rptree.sh will start at the PID and go to all of its ancestors.

$ ptree.sh $PPID
  10459                         foobar  sshd:
    10461                       foobar  -ksh
      4852                      foobar  /bin/sh
        4861                    foobar  ps
        4862                    foobar  sed
        4863                    foobar  sort
      15017                     foobar  vi
