PID
The px
utility lists processes running on
the system, to the standard output. If stdout is a terminal, output will be
truncated at terminal window width.
Without any arguments, px
lists all
processes on the system.
If you specify a filter the output will contain only processes matching that filter.
The filter can be a user name or part of a
command line. For example, ‘px java
’
will list all Java processes, and ‘px
root
’ will list all of root's processes.
Running px
PID will
show you information about a given process:
px
tries to be helpful about naming
processes, and avoid printing names of various VMs.
For example, if you do ‘java -jar
foo.jar
’, px
will show this process as
‘foo.jar
’ rather than
‘java
’.
