IBM Security Guardium - How can I get the output of the OS command ps -ef

Question & Answer


Question

How can I get the output of the ps -ef command from an IBM Security Guardium appliance?

 

Answer

So you cannot directly run ps -ef on any Guardium appliance, it is restricted to Guardium Support.

However, if you collect a system_db_info must gather, a file is generated named "running_system_processes.txt", this contains all the information outputed from a ps -ef.

This is the only method other than via the root account which is restricted to Guardium support.
