Try using your own ps command ala Perl with the Proc::ProcessTable
module. I may have posted an example here earlier this week.

> If I run "ps" on Solaris or on SuSE Linux 7.2 I see the Oracle background=
processes under the command heading containing the SID, eg. "ora_smon_MYSI=
D" or "oracleMYSID (LOCAL=3DNO)". If I do the same under SuSE Linux 8.2 I =
just get "[oracle]", no process name and no SID.

> I know I can cross-reference process id's with V$PROCESS but it's a lot e=
asier if this information is already in ps. Is there some way to get SuSE =
8.2 to behave like 7.2 (or Solaris) in this regard?
