pids
They are having some issues with oracle when the pid is high (6 digits) on the same version of AIX.
the support guys in my company want to simulate the problem but we are not getting pid higher then 5 digits on our machine...

question: for the below program

can someone comment on that!

Hello guys,
How to shut down a port number in AIX.
May be first I need to find out what is the process ID of that process that listens to this particular port.. Is there any command to find a process ID from the port number other than "lsof".

VI(1) General Commands Manual VI(1)
NAME
vi, ki, xi - instruction simulators
SYNOPSIS
vi [ textfile ]
vi pid
ki [ textfile ]
ki pid
xi [ textfile ]
xi pid
DESCRIPTION
Vi simulates the execution of a MIPS binary in a Plan 9 environment. It has two main uses: as a debugger and as a statistics gatherer.
Programs running under vi execute about two hundred times slower than normal--but faster than single stepping under db. Ki and xi are sim-
ilar to vi but interpret SPARC and ATT3210 binaries. The following discussion refers to vi but applies to the others as well.
Vi will simulate the execution of a named textfile. It will also make a copy of an existing process with process id pid and simulate its
continuation.
As a debugger vi offers more complete information than db(1). Tracing can be performed at the level of instructions, system calls, or
function calls. Vi allows breakpoints to be triggered when specified addresses in memory are accessed. A report of instruction counts,
load delay fills and distribution is produced for each run. Vi simulates the CPU's caches and MMU to assist the optimization of compilers
and programs.
The command interface mirrors the interface to db; see db(1) for a detailed description. Data formats and addressing are compatible with
db except for disassembly: vi offers only MIPS (db -mmipsco) mnemonics for machine instructions. Ki offers both Plan 9 and Sun SPARC for-
mats.
Several extra commands allow extended tracing and printing of statistics:
$t[0ics]
The t command controls tracing. Zero cancels all tracing options.
i Enable instruction tracing
c Enable call tracing
s Enable system call tracing
$i[itsp]
The i command prints statistics accumulated by all code run in this session.
i Print instruction counts and frequency.
p Print cycle profile.
t (Vi only) Print TLB and cache statistics.
s Print memory reference, working set and size statistics.
:b[arwe]
Vi allows breakpoints to be set on any memory location. These breakpoints monitor when a location is accessed, read, written, or
equals a certain value. For equality the compared value is the count (see db(1)) supplied to the command.
SOURCE
/sys/src/cmd/vi etc.

nm(1), db(1)
BUGS
The code generated by the compilers is well supported, but some unusual instructions are unimplemented. Some Plan 9 system calls such as
rfork cause simulated traps. The floating point simulation makes assumptions about the interpreting machine's floating point support. The
floating point conversions performed by vi may cause a loss of precision.
