				Hello all,
 
How do I search for the system process that is associated with the Authentication exit? Since our authentication exit is implemented in java, I did ps -ef|grep java. This only showed the java apps that are deployed on WAS running on the same box.
 
Environment:WF 3.6 on AIX
 
 
I need the process ID to see if our nightly WF recycle cause a new Auth exit process to start, or to use an already existing Auth exit process?
 
 
Any help is highly appreciated.

				The ps command writes the current status of active processes.
 
So If you want ot check the kernel processes what I guess u mean system process here then use ps -k
 
U can write a script to check ur desired process.
 
Ps -a shows all the processes.
 
u can go through various option avaiblabe.
 
Just type man ps. |

				| I can list all the processes, which are about 250 -300. How do I know which particular process is the one that refers to the Authentication exit. What is the  search string that I should use? |

				It is my opinion that the authentication exit runs in the fmcamain (Admin Server) process. _________________ John McDonald

				John is right,
 
 
fmcamin links Java runtime dynamic link library and calls the Authentication Exit. This also answers your original question: the Authentication Exit gets recycled, too when you recycle fmcamain. |
