In nut shell Im trying to use top to get the desired process and then store them in a array and print them ..
You have not mentioned how many iterations of top should run,so this will keep blocking on that statement.
Also the assignment line is incorrect.

Try this approach,
Code:
  set -A proc $(top -n 5 | grep siebmtshmw |awk '{print $6}')
  echo ${proc[*]}

Thanks
