Operating Systems HP-UX get whole command arguments in ps -ef? Post 35165 by usfrog on Monday 31st of March 2003 12:15:40 PM

Question get whole command arguments in ps -ef?

Hello All,

I want to build some monitoring of processes in HP-UX 11.x.

Is there any way to get the whole set of commands and arguments instead of the first 60 characters? I read that there's a limitation of the ps -ef command that we can't overcome. In this case is there any other command that I can use?

My need is so basic I can't believe there's no way to get that information Smilie

Thank you!

NAME
pexpand - expand requested commands in metafile SYNOPSIS
pexpand [ +/-EPDOCSURIlrtmvsp ] file .. DESCRIPTION
Pexpand reads each metafile file in sequence and expands any commands specified in a '+' option, and deletes any commands specified in a '-' option. This is necessary because most drivers will not support many metafile commands such as 'v' (vector string) and 'O', 'C', and 's' (segments). Pexpand will expand '+' instances into the corresponding primitives which are supported, and delete all '-' instances. Certain commands are currently considered basic, and must be supported by all drivers. The commands 'D', 'E', 'S', 'U', 'R', 'l', 'r', and 't' are basic (see metafile(5)). If no input files are specified, the standard input is read. +EPDOCSURIlrtmvsp Expand the requested command(s). -EPDOCSURIlrtmvsp Delete the requested command(s). EXAMPLE
To expand vector strings and segements, and delete pauses from "meta": pexpand +vOCs -P meta FILES
