I have written a script to determine if processes are running. I am
using, as an example,
ps -ax | grep -c postgrey
Ocassionally, I am receiving a notification a process is not running (and
it varies which process I receive notifications for). And, when checking,
the process actually is running.
Is there a better way to determine if a process is running than using ps
and grep?
Thanks,
Jay
