pwdx equivalent on HP

UNIX HP-UX
1

In sun solaris, pwdx will give the print working directory.

Suppose I have 5 databases running on different oracle versions.

If I want to know what database is running on what oracle version, I just give pwdx <process id>. It will show the oracle home details.

Could you give me the equivalent command on HP UX please.

Thanks

Thanks for the reply. But my question is how to check any process's home directory.

ps -ef | grep pmon
This will give you pid and ... all the info.

Suppose if I want to know the home(working) directory of that process in sun there is a command pwdx. pwdx <pid> will show you the home direcotry of any process.

What is the equivalent on HP. Or how can I check any process home/working direcotry?

Thanks,

Only way I know is to install lsof and use that.

And the closest I can get with lsof would be:
lsof -p <PID>|grep cwd or |more...

Thanks guys for the reply.
I don't have lsof installed. If any other work around please let me know.

Thanks,

So install it. It's free. Link: lsof-4.80

Thanks Perderabo.
But this is for my client, and I am not a sysadmin. I am an oracle Dba, I can not justify the need. Lot of change control process are there.. they may not approve.

Anyways thanks for the help.

What's the problem with the standard way (oratab sid <-> oracle home mapping)?

You can even use the wrapper script dbhome that Oracle provides: dbhome $ORACLE_SID.

>I am an oracle Dba, I can not justify the need.

Oh yes you can, the DBA's here at my work have asked lsof be a prerequisite to OA installation, how will you solve socket / port issues without? etc...

Thanks radoulov. dbhome <SID> solved my issue.
Thank you all. Appreciate the help.
