Yep, monitoring chapter mentions it: <productname>Solaris</productname> requires special handling. You must use <command>/usr/ucb/ps</command>, rather than <command>/bin/ps</command>. You also must use two <command>w</command> flags, not just one. In addition, your original invocation of the <application>postmaster</application> must have a shorter <command>ps</command> status display than that provided by each backend. If you fail to do all three things, the <command>ps</> output for each backend will be the original <application>postmaster</> command line. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
