Fyi Process Explorer doesn't install a kernel driver, unless its dynamic
at runtime (AFAIK). It doesn't have an install routine, you just unzip
and run the exe. It's possible/likely that it uses some type of 'hook'
into the system, but if so, its using dlls and such that are already
installed/registered.

Warning, Process monitor (procmon.exe) has crashed my PC in past. Also
during my seminar one attendee once said they had a case where process
explorer (procexp.exe) crashed their server with blue screen. Not saying
that this will definitely happen to you but be careful in production.
Btw this can happen because these tools are not regular userland tools,
they install a kernel driver for reading kernel memory directly afaik.
If you have windows debugging tools installed, you can run tlist <pid>
or tlist oracle.exe to get thread info:
C:\Documents and Settings\Tanel>tlist oracle.exe

If you don't have it, you can get the number of threads info out from
task manager as well (go to view -> select columns and select "thread
count").
btw, if listener is having trouble spawning new threads (or processes in
unix), it should be seen from listener log..

Brian,
If you go to sysinternals.com
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/cb56073f-62a3-4ed8-9dd6-
40c84cb9e2f5.aspx one of the free tools-- process monitor or process
explorer should show you what you want.
The standard oracle processes (pmon, ckpt, et al.) are threads
under the oracle.exe process in Windows.
Good luck.
Joey D'Antoni

Hello all,
I can see oracle processes in unix but how do I see them in
windows? We have some connection issues and I want to see how many pids
are out there.
ciao,
Brian
