System Administration Guide: Virtualization Using the Solaris Operating System

Command Options Used With Projects and Tasks

ps Command

Use the ps command with the -o option to display task and project IDs. For example, to view the project ID, type the following:


# ps -o user,pid,uid,projid
USER PID   UID  PROJID
jtd  89430 124  4113

id Command

Use the id command with the -p option to print the current project ID in addition to the user and group IDs. If the user operand is provided, the project associated with that user's normal login is printed:


#  id -p
uid=124(jtd) gid=10(staff) projid=4113(booksite)

pgrep and pkill Commands

To match only processes with a project ID in a specific list, use the pgrep and pkill commands with the -J option:


# pgrep -J projidlist
# pkill -J projidlist

To match only processes with a task ID in a specific list, use the pgrep and pkill commands with the -T option:


# pgrep -T taskidlist
# pkill -T taskidlist

prstat Command

To display various statistics for processes and projects that are currently running on your system, use the prstat command with the -J option:
