Henrik,

linux [ps] PID PPID USER STARTED S PRI %CPU TIME %MEM RSZ VSZ CMD

AIX [ps] PID PPID USER S PRI %CPU TIME ELAPSED %MEM VSZ COMMAND

Solaris 5.8 [ps] PID PPID USER STIME S PRI %CPU TIME %MEM RSS VSZ COMMAND

Does the parsing look for COMMAND as the 11th variable and CMD as the 12th?

Regards,

Chris

Last two snapshots August 7th and 8th have had problems parsing 'ps' for all hosts:

Expected string CMD not found in ps output header

Could you send me a copy of the ~hobbit/client/tmp/msg*txt file from that host ? There were some changes done to the ps-handler recently, but it should still be looking for both "CMD" and "COMMAND" as the heading for the commandline.

I have the client running on Linux, Solaris 8 and 10 and FreeBSD - and it works fine with those.
