The cron was not running at the same time. I was done afterwards. The value expected from cron is 2 because cron spawns the script using Bourne shell (sh) as seen from the output.
The primary issue that I'm dealing with is that the developers who created a script that runs on these hosts are producing different output since the patching. As you can see, the patched system is assigning the value of 3 when it should be 2 to the proc variables when run via cron.
I dont think a cron related problem..Also manuel outputs is giving same result that add one more to variables on patched systems..
Maybe when your ps value send to variable kernel show another process that named called script..
Maybe
And you try probably `ps aux` for clear result..
Or you must put same lines after variables again in your code
Again lets see output

shells
shells(4) File Formats shells(4)NAME
shells - shell database
SYNOPSIS
/etc/shells
DESCRIPTION
The shells file contains a list of the shells on the system. Applications use this file to determine whether a shell is valid. See getuser-
shell(3C). For each shell a single line should be present, consisting of the shell's path, relative to root.
A hash mark (#) indicates the beginning of a comment; subsequent characters up to the end of the line are not interpreted by the routines
which search the file. Blank lines are also ignored.
The following default shells are used by utilities: /bin/bash, /bin/csh, /bin/jsh, /bin/ksh, /bin/pfcsh, /bin/pfksh, /bin/pfsh, /bin/sh,
/bin/tcsh, /bin/zsh, /sbin/jsh, /sbin/sh, /usr/bin/bash, /usr/bin/csh, /usr/bin/jsh, /usr/bin/ksh, /usr/bin/pfcsh, /usr/bin/pfksh,
/usr/bin/pfsh, and /usr/bin/sh, /usr/bin/tcsh, /usr/bin/zsh. Note that /etc/shells overrides the default list.
Invalid shells in /etc/shells may cause unexpected behavior (such as being unable to log in by way of ftp(1)).
