I know that the Solaris ps has a slightly different heritage from the =
Linux
ps, so the switches that you pass are going to be different.
"ps auxw" from a non-oracle user, but who is in the dba group does give =
me
the correct process information; it also seems to work as desired when
invoked from a non-oracle, non-dba-group user (we don't have any
non-essential users on our box, so I had to use root to su to an =
inactive
username.)

Thanks for everyone's suggestions. Unfortunately no luck yet but I =
think
that's because I'm looking in the wrong place focusing on 'ps' itself. =
I
have discovered two further things:
=20
1. ps works fine, as expected if I start the instance from the unix =
user
oracle, but I get this "[oracle]" behaviour if I start it from any other
user, ie. members of the dba group.
=20
2. /proc/<pid>/cmdline is empty if the instance is started by a =
non-oracle
dba group member.
=20
It looks like the process just isn't being registered properly with the =
Linux
kernel correctly at start up, so I can't blame ps for not being able to
report on it. Not sure why that is - the suid and guid bits are set ok =
on
the oracle binary. I guess I'll just have to start the instance as =
oracle
for the time being.
=20
Any further suggestions welcome.

My admin's last suggestion (I promise) :-
export PS_PERSONALITY=3Dsun
export CMD_ENV=3Dsun
then run the usual SunOS commands "ps -ef | grep ora"

Thanks, but sorry, no - this returns "[oracle]" again:

Subject: Linux ps command
Hi List,
If I run "ps" on Solaris or on SuSE Linux 7.2 I see the Oracle =
background
processes under the command heading containing the SID, eg. =
"ora_smon_MYSID"
or "oracleMYSID (LOCAL=3DNO)". If I do the same under SuSE Linux 8.2 I =
just
get "[oracle]", no process name and no SID.
I know I can cross-reference process id's with V$PROCESS but it's a lot
easier if this information is already in ps. Is there some way to get =
SuSE
8.2 to behave like 7.2 (or Solaris) in this regard?
Thanks
