Hi Guys,

I want to find my simv process is started from /opt/sge/default/something process or not. I can use below command show process id and parent process ID but in few cases simv is not directly started from /opt/sge/default/something

To find simv process i used:
ps xao user,pid,ppid,comm | grep 'simv'
regress 7977 7968 simv
regress 27307 27298 simv--> this process is started from /opt/sge/default/something
1363 29025 29018 simv--> this also started from /opt/sge/default/something but is parent process is differnt

Below the example
[root@cin230 ~]# ps 27298
PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND
27298 ? SNs 0:00 bash /opt/sge/default/spool/cin230/job_scripts/3022732
[root@cin230 ~]# ps 29018
PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND
29018 ? S 0:00 /bin/bash /dv6//home/saravanakumars/T6_tree/verif/top/sys_Ing/run.local.ASIC.ntb/tls/tls_in
[root@cin230 ~]# ps -p "29018" -o ppid=
29008
[root@cin230 ~]# ps 29008
PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND
29008 ? S 0:00 tcsh -c /dv6//home/saravanakumars/T6_tree/verif/top/sys_Ing/run.local.ASIC.ntb/tls/tls_ingr
[root@cin230 ~]# ps -p "29008" -o ppid=
29001
[root@cin230 ~]# ps 29001
PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND
29001 ? Ss 0:00 /opt/sge/utilbin/lx-amd64/qrsh_starter /opt/sge/default/spool/cin230/active_jobs/3031200.1

I want to find whether whether simv process is spawned from /opt/sge/default/something or not.

Thanks in advance.

One option would be

Hi Fmattheus,

Thanks for reply but your command is not working

Currenty running 3 simv process
[root@cin230 ~]# ps xao user,pid,ppid,comm | grep 'simv'
regress 27307 27298 simv
1363 29025 29018 simv
regress 29560 29551 simv

when i used the your command its giving below command

[root@cin230 ~]# ps -ef | egrep '/opt/sge/default/.*simv'
root 20551 6242 0 00:45 pts/1 00:00:00 egrep /opt/sge/default/.*simv

Any help

Ahh ... ok, now I think I understand what you're trying to do.
simv is started by a parent process. When that parent process is run from a script in /opt/sge/default, you want to know the pid of the simv process.

This command should do that
Let's break that down

gives a list of all pids containing /opt/sge/default.

It loops through them all in a for loop with a variable named ppid.

Lists all processes that contain simv

The awk here checks if the third column is the current ppid, if so it prints the pid of the simv process.
Note: the awk variables $3 and $2 need to be escaped that's why the extra \ is there.

Hi fmattheus,

Thanks for helping me again.

1. simv process spanned by /opt/sge/default
2. Some times simv process directly started (not using /opt/sge/default)
3. Now i want find whether my simv process is started by /opt/sge/default or directly started without using /opt/sge/default

Try this slight variation
compare the first with the second and you'll know which and from where.

Alternate: Read the directory with lsof, eg:
and process that result.

Hi Habitual,

Could you Please explain me what below command does

for ppid in $(ps -ef | grep -v /opt/sge/default | awk '{print $2}'); do ps -ef | grep simv | awk "\$3 ~ /$ppid/ {print \$2}"; done

Thanks,

the command shows you what's running called simv but not running out of /opt/sge/default

Hi Habitual,

I am finding simv process ID's by below command

[root@cin230 ~]# ps xao user,pid,ppid,comm | grep 'simv'
2261 12747 12738 simv
basheer 16738 16729 simv

and then I am greping simv process ID by below to find whether simv process ID is started by /opt/sge/default or not. Is my understanding is correct?
[root@cin230 ~]# for ppid in $(ps -ef | grep -v /opt/sge/default | awk '{print $2}'); do ps -ef | grep simv | awk "\$3 ~ /$ppid/ {print \$2}"; done | grep 12747
12747
12747
12747
12747
12747
12747
12747
12747
[root@cin230 ~]# for ppid in $(ps -ef | grep -v /opt/sge/default | awk '{print $2}'); do ps -ef | grep simv | awk "\$3 ~ /$ppid/ {print \$2}"; done | grep 16738
16738
16738
16738
16738
16738
16738
16738

Why did you add the grep to the end of the for command?
