From ps - HP-UX
Code:
           -f             Show columns user, pid, ppid, cpu, stime, tty,
                          time, and args, in that order.

...

           args           The command line given when the process was
                          created.  This column should be the last one
                          specified, if it is desired.  Only a subset of the
                          command line is saved by the kernel; as much of
                          the command line will be displayed as is
                          available.  The output in this column may contain
                          spaces.  The default heading for this column is
                          COMMAND if -o is specified and CMD otherwise.

In HP-UX, you can try -x option to show command line in extended format.
Code:
ps -efx

As Alister mentioned above, you can display args alone using -o option:
Code:
UNIX95=1 ps -ae -o args

Make sure you set UNIX95 variable to use the XPG4 environment instead of the HP-UX environment.

Pipe the O/P to sort command to get sorted args result.

I do have it:
Code:
$ ps -efx | grep tivoli
    root  4605  4603  0  Mar 14  ?        450:44 /opt/tivoli/ep/_jvm/bin/PA_RISC2.0/tca -Xmx384m -Xminf0.01 -Xmaxf0.4 -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack

OS version:
Code:
$ uname -s -r -v -m
HP-UX B.11.23 U 9000/800

ps version:
Code:
$ what /usr/bin/ps
/usr/bin/ps:
        $Revision: 92453-07 linker linker crt0.o B.11.16.01 030415 $
         ps.c $Date: 2005/05/30 03:42:36 $Revision: r11.23/4 PATCH_11.23 (PHCO_32475)
         $Revision: @(#) ps R11.23_BL2005_0530_2 PATCH_11.23 PHCO_32475

What version are you using? Also check your man pages.

---------- Post updated at 01:19 ---------- Previous update was at 01:13 ----------

Never mind, I did some research and discovered that -x option is only available starting with HP-UX 11.11

Thanks yoda..

As expected, mine is lower..

Code:
$ uname -s -r -v -m
HP-UX B.11.00 U 9000/800

Code:
$ what /usr/bin/ps
/usr/bin/ps:
         ps.c  $Revision: 82.1.1.2 $ $Date: 99/04/29 00:13:07 $
         PATCH_11_00: ps.o 99/04/29

So, is there any other options for me? Smilie

---------- Post updated 04-23-13 at 09:22 AM ---------- Previous update was 04-22-13 at 02:33 PM ----------

Ermm.. Isn't there a solution for this? Smilie

Thank you.

If you cannot extract the information that you need from ps because the kernel does not provide it, then it's time to reconsider the approach.

It may be possible to restrict matches based on uid, gid, or some other attribute, but you have neglected to describe the situation.

Try
Code:
UNIX95=1 ps -eo pid,user,time,args

For filtering, pipe this to awk,
for example to
Code:
awk '$2=="oracle9" && /[I]CP/'
