Operating Systems Linux Find a process ID,kill it and restart agent Post 302953416 by MadeInGermany on Friday 28th of August 2015 02:04:04 AM

ps aux and ps -ef print the command arguments, so a grep needs the trick grep "[h]awkagent".
Note the quotes that prevent the shell from matching against files in the current directory.
pgrep does not need the trick.

ZGREP(1)						      General Commands Manual							  ZGREP(1)

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
