/usr/bin/ps -p equivalent in ucb version
Hi,

Is there an option in /usr/ucb/ps version to get a selected list of processes like in /usr/bin/ps -p"1 3 5" option?

Thanks,

Fredy

Here's what looks like a link to the BSD ps command man page. It says that the '-p' option works there too...

maybe my SunOS doens't work?
the result of `uname -a` is:
SunOS sun6 5.8 Generic_108528-12 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-60

when running with -p the result is:
/login/fredy>/usr/ucb/ps -axuwwwww -p"1"
/usr/ucb/ps: illegal option -- p

Thanks again,

Fredy

I checked that... I suppose that the Sun version of the UCB ps does not work as the current BSD manuals specify.

There is none needed, just put the pid(s) at the end of the command.

Writing the pid number, at the end of the ps, seems to support only one pid
/fredy>/usr/ucb/ps -axuwwwww 19475 19485
ps: too many arguments
usage: ps [ -aceglnrSuUvwx ] [ -t term ] [ num ]

Just give one pid at a time.
Code:
# /usr/ucb/ps -auxww 1 4
ps: too many arguments
usage: ps [ -aceglnrSuUvwx ] [ -t term ] [ num ]
# /usr/ucb/ps -auxww 1  
USER       PID %CPU %MEM   SZ  RSS TT       S    START  TIME COMMAND
root         1  0.0  0.1  896  200 ?        S   Jul 30  0:56 /etc/init -
