    Hi,

    We have a process name other processes link to

    e.g.
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 jdoe staff 36 Oct 27 10:11 iv_process.myproc.jdoed
    -> /home/jdoe/src/crs/moe/moe_server

    in ps -ef, it'll show up as iv_process.myproc.jdoed (in CMD collumn)
    however, in top, it'll show up as moe_server (in COMMAND column)

    Where doess ps -ef vs top get their information, and how do I make them
    the same (the name of the link, not of the linked to binary)

    In oracle, v$session.process shows up as moe_server as well, therefore I
    cannot identify who the process belongs to (ok, in oracle there is also an
    'osuser' identifier, howerver, I have a case where multiple different
    iv_<name>.myproc.jdoed connect to the same oracle schema from the same
    osuser).

    Thanks,

    Will summarize
