If you mean Solaris, note what the manual says at http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/static/monitoring-ps.html Tip: Solaris requires special handling. You must use /usr/ucb/ps, rather than /bin/ps. You also must use two w flags, not just one. In addition, your original invocation of the postgres command must have a shorter ps status display than that provided by each server process. If you fail to do all three things, the ps output for each server process will be the original postgres command line. This advice is close to ten years old, but might well still apply to recent Solaris releases. regards, tom lane |
