Operating Systems AIX Need explanation of 'who -d' output Post 302337193 by Padow on Thursday 23rd of July 2009 02:59:48 PM

-d
Displays all processes that have expired without being regenerated by init. The exit field appears for dead processes and contains the termination and exit values (as returned by wait) of the dead process. (This flag is useful for determining why a process ended by looking at the error number returned by the application.)

I think that answers all the questions. They can't be fixed, as the processes have already ended. Perhaps they are set to 'once' in /etc/inittab.
