I don't have your Solaris to try.
A quick fix is to use ordinary grep.

I my "ps" there are exactly 5 space characters after PID and before the start of PPID. Note the leading space before "1085" and the trailing space after "1" to avoid accidental matches. The "1085" was just a PID I was trying.

Code:

ps -ef|grep " 1085     1 "|grep -v "grep"

Afterthought:
This would be much more efficient as:

Code:

ps -fp1085 | grep " 1085     1 "|grep -v "grep"

Couldn't find a suitable "pgrep" command.

zfgrep

ZGREP(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 						  ZGREP(1)

NAME

     zgrep, zegrep, zfgrep -- print lines matching a pattern in gzip-compressed files

SYNOPSIS

     zgrep [grep-flags] [--] pattern [files ...]

     zegrep [grep-flags] [--] pattern [file ...]

     zfgrep [grep-flags] [--] pattern [file ...]

DESCRIPTION

     zgrep runs grep(1) on files or stdin, if no files argument is given, after decompressing them with zcat(1).

     The grep-flags and pattern arguments are passed on to grep(1).  If an -e flag is found in the grep-flags, zgrep will not look for a pattern
     argument.

     zegrep calls egrep(1), while zfgrep calls fgrep(1).

EXIT STATUS

     In case of missing arguments or missing pattern, 1 will be returned, otherwise 0.

SEE ALSO

     egrep(1), fgrep(1), grep(1), gzip(1), zcat(1)
