Error "Processes" truncated on Solaris
Code:
ps -eo pid,ppid,uid,user,args

If i use above command on any of my sol boxes,i see that fifth column (args or COMMAND) is truncated.

Is there a way of getting full details in this column ,like we have in AIX?

Regards
Abhi

The usual workaround is:
Code:
/usr/ucb/ps -alxwww

If you haven't /usr/ucb/ps installed (eg. OpenSolaris), you might also use
Code:
pargs -a <pid>

to see a process full argument list.

Thanks !!

Code:
/usr/ucb/ps -alxwww

this command does not show 'user' column....does it?

Any way of getting that column as well?

I am comparing above command's o/p with

Code:
ps -eo pid,ppid,uid,user,args

Regards
Abhi

It does show UID which is closely related.

Yes, use the 'u' option but you loose the PPID column ... :-\
Code:
/usr/ucb/ps -aluwww

hmm...thanks !!

so no hope for me to get all necessary columns....??

I need all those columns with 'args' expanded completely.

Either a small shell script that would process ps output to convert uid to usernames or modifying the ps source code to suit your needs ...

Cross Reference: /onnv/onnv-gate/usr/src/cmd/ps/ucbps.c
