Hi there. Tried that on SunOS and AIX and it just returns an unfiltered df listing I'm afraid.

I edited my post may be you should search with 'kuxagen' ?

Code:
ps -o 'user,args' -e | awk '/kuxagent/ {print "~"$1}'

First see the output then try piping df.

My mistake for using the wrong process name in my earlier example.

On Solaris, that command shows the 2 userids running kuxagent, as well as my own userid which is searching for the kuxagent process.

Code:
$ ps -o 'user,args' -e | awk '/kuxagent/ {print "~"$1}'
~itmuser
~asoames
~itmclus

Code:
$ ps -o 'user,args' -e | awk '/kuxagent/ {print "~"$1}' |df

Piping it into df just shows a full df listing with no filtering?

Means it is evaluating the "df" command right?
what filtering you you require? I guess only file system?
Can you show the output of the above command? I am having HP-UX and df output is varies in linux

Code:
$ ps -o 'user,args' -e | awk '/kuxagent/ {print "~"$1}' | df
/                  (/dev/md/dsk/d10   ):10087646 blocks   924064 files
/proc              (/proc             ):       0 blocks    29672 files
/etc/mnttab        (mnttab            ):       0 blocks        0 files
/dev/fd            (fd                ):       0 blocks        0 files
/var               (/dev/md/dsk/d30   ):13831854 blocks  1193823 files
/var/run           (swap              ):29657248 blocks   798312 files
/dev/vx/dmp        (dmpfs             ):29657248 blocks   798312 files
/dev/vx/rdmp       (dmpfs             ):29657248 blocks   798312 files
/tmp               (swap              ):29657248 blocks   798312 files
/home              (/dev/vx/dsk/rootdg/home):  973214 blocks   121649 files
/opt/IBM/ITM              (/dev/vx/dsk/rootdg/ITM): 2061956 blocks   257742 files
/opt/clus2/IBM/ITM       (/dev/vx/dsk/clusdg/ITM): 2063702 blocks   257960 files

...

So what I'm trying to have it display is just the filesystems that contain a running kuxagent process, if that's possible, or maybe I'm not explaining myself too well. Thanks.

So you want to get the first column from the above?

Code:
ps -o 'user,args' -e | awk '/kuxagent/ {print "~"$1}' | df | awk "{print $1}'

Almost. The one-liner commands needs to do this, in order.

1. Are there any kuxagent processes running?
2. Capture the userid that is running each kuxagent process
3. Do a 'df ~userid' command for each userid returned. e.g. df ~itmuser df ~itmclus
4. Which should return the results similar to below.

Code:
/opt/IBM/ITM              (/dev/vx/dsk/rootdg/ITM): 2061956 blocks   257742 files
/opt/clus2/IBM/ITM       (/dev/vx/dsk/clusdg/ITM): 2063702 blocks   257960 file
