thats precisely what i am asking....

the command/ set of commands to capture that string?

In case you have an AIX box,run following command

Code:
COLUMNS=2047 /usr/bin/ps -eo pid,ppid,uid,user,args

You'll see five-column o/p ,of which 5th column will have strings ,separated by whitespaces.

Select one row where 5th column would be a such a huge string.Now assume you are iterating over its PID(1st column value) meaning you know this value and need to iterate over this to get that 5th column and whatever is there in that column ,assign it to a variable.

How would ya do it?

Abhi

Why don't you paste the output of that command over here ?
Not everyone over here has an AIX box (an example being myself).

Which value ? 5th column or 1st column ?

Quote:
... and need to iterate over this to get that 5th column ...
Does "this" mean the "1st column" ?
Why would one need to iterate over the "1st column" ?

Quote:
... and whatever is there in that column ,assign it to a variable.
Again, what's "that column" ? - 5th column ? or (gasp!) 1st column ?

puff!!

i thought ppl here are smart enough to understand things....!! sheer disappointment !!

one last attempt to explain what i need:

here it is

Code:
bash-3.00$ COLUMNS=2047 /usr/bin/ps -eo pid,ppid,uid,user,args
238062      1     0     root /opt/CA/SharedComponents/ca_lic/lic98fds

242070 131238     0     root /var/itlm/wasagent/jre/bin/java -classpath properties:lib/admin.jar:lib/bootstrap.jar:lib/classloader.jar:lib/ecutils.jar:lib/emf.jar:lib/ffdc.jar:lib/idl.jar:lib/iwsorb.jar:lib/j2ee.jar:lib/mail-impl.jar:lib/management.jar:lib/naming.jar:lib/namingclient.jar:lib/ras.jar:lib/runtime.jar:lib/sas.jar:lib/security.jar:lib/soap.jar:lib/tmx4jc.jar:lib/tx.jar:lib/utils.jar:lib/wasjmx.jar:lib/wasproduct.jar:lib/wlmclient.jar:lib/wsexception.jar:lib/wssec.jar:wasagent.jar:resources.jar:jlog.jar:jffdc.jar:tivolicommondir.jar:ITLMToolkit.jar -Djlog.propertyFileDir=/var/itlm/wasagent -Ditlm.agent.dir=/var/itlm -Dcom.ibm.SOAP.ConfigURL=file:/var/itlm/wasagent/properties/soap.client.props -Djava.naming.factory.initial=com.ibm.websphere.naming.WsnInitialContextFactory -Ditlm.config.dir=/etc -Ditlm.agent.pid=131238 com.ibm.it.rome.wasagent.WASAgent

246220 299054     0     root db2ckpwd 0

now we see PID column,we have that value.Take that value and write something that it would look for the 5th column (command)...and irrespective of how long this string (command) is ,assign it to a variable.

e.g PID=242070,ARGS string is needed in a variable so that i can spilt it into three parts.(Command Name,Command Path,Command Arguments)

Code:
PID  @@Host Processes .PID@@
COLUMNS=2047 ps -eo pid,ppid,uid,user,args|awk -F' ' '{ if($1 == @@Host Processes.PID@@) print $5 }'

If i punch "242070" in place of @@Host Processes.PID@@,then what i get is
Code:
/var/itlm/wasagent/jre/bin/java

I need that whole string.

Does this help?

try something like this :

Code:
awk .............{ for(i=5;i<=NF;i++) print $i } '  .. instead of "print $5"

Old 09-09-2009
One way:

Code:
COLUMNS=2047 /usr/bin/ps -eo pid,ppid,uid,user,args |
awk '/java/{$1=$2=$3=$4="";sub("^    ","");print}'

Thanks Franklin52 !!
