Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users Script causing multi forked porcess - not sure why ? Post 302269099 by learnoutmore99 on Tuesday 16th of December 2008 10:39:22 PM

thx for the quick reply, sorry it was a typo, it shd be ps -ef | grep -c rename.sh , and i could see thousands of such processes,

i did try running in sh -x mode but it would not give any output but just hang and after i press ctrl + c it would take time to come out but i guess would not be properly killed.
i did check the logs and it shows that the script goes in loops and starts multiple processes of itself.

NAME
hwloc-ps - List currently-running processes that are bound. SYNOPSIS
hwloc-ps [options] OPTIONS
-a list all processes, even those that are not bound to any specific part of the machine. -p --physical report OS/physical indexes instead of logical indexes -l --logical report logical indexes instead of physical/OS indexes (default) -c --cpuset show process bindings as cpusets instead of objects. --whole-system Do not consider administration limitations. DESCRIPTION
By default, hwloc-ps lists only those currently-running processes that are bound; it displays their their identifier, command-line and binding. The binding may be reported as objects or cpusets. By default, process bindings are restricted to the currently available topol- ogy. If some processes are bound to processors that are not available to the current process, they are ignored unless --whole-system is given. The output is a plain list. If you wish to annotate the hierarchical topology with processes so as to see how they are actual dis- tributed on the machine, you might want to use lstopo --ps instead (which also only shows processes that are bound). The -a switch can be used to show all processes, if desired. SEE ALSO
