I tried this, it does not work

Code:
[xmp@tswebpxmp7 ~]$ top -b -n 1 | grep "TCP-ROUTER"
[xmp@tswebpxmp7 ~]$ top -b -n 1 | grep "TCP-ROUTER*"
[xmp@tswebpxmp7 ~]$ top -b -n 1 | grep TCP-ROUTER
[xmp@tswebpxmp7 ~]$ top -b -n 1 | grep TCP-ROUTER*

Is the below top command shows the "TCP-ROUTER" ?

Code:
 
top -b -n 1

if you want to grep the process details, the use

Code:
 
ps -ef | grep "TCP\-ROUTER"

provide the -c flag as well, you need the full command line for TCP-ROUTER to appear in the output, thus
Code:
top -bcn 1 | grep "TCP-ROUTER"
