Shell Programming and Scripting

Hey everyone, I have a very simple BASH shell script that simply checks what processes I have running on a few different nodes, which are preknown. Currently, my script spews out all the processes on all the nodes, but I'm really only interested in one process per node. The processes I am interested are the only .exe processes on the nodes. Is there a way I could edit my script so that I only see those processes? Here's a sample of my current code:

Code:

echo "n111"
ssh n111 ps -u scn
echo "n109"
ssh n109 ps -u scn
.....

And the output looks something like,

Code:

n111
PID     TTY        Time      CMD
8529    ?          00:00:00   g09
8530    ?          00:12:39   1703.exe
8548    ?          00:00:00   sshd
.....

The bolded process is the one I would like to isolate and display.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Code:

ssh n111 ps -u scn | grep exe

Code:

ssh n111 -n "ps -u scn | grep [e]xe"

Depending on how the remote system behave, you might need to exclude "grep" itself from the list.

Code:

ssh n111 ps -u scn | grep "exe" | grep -v "grep"

Edit: ctsgnb's solution is better.

In case all you need is a pid:

Code:

pgrep -u scn '\.exe$'
