If modifying the source of your &quot;services&quot; is an option, the cleanest solution would be to have each of them get their pid on startup and emit it to stdout. Your start script could then get the value and save it however you wish.

Hi there!, I have a set of programs (1..6) let me refer them as &quot;services&quot; wich I need to execute all in the same shell because they use a common PATH, and in the same machine (SUN-Solaris) run the services again but with another PATH.<br />
The status is 2 or 3 sessions within its PATH and running this services, well the problem is that I can't control (stop, restart) only 1 program inside a service because they all have the same name but in different instances.<br />
The idea is write a program wich forks or execs this programs from a conf file, and write the PID somewhere in order to kill and restart later 1 program of a service of a session:<br />
&nbsp;Graphical explanation:<br />
<br />
Services = { &nbsp;PgmA , PgmB , PgmC,... }<br />
Session= &nbsp;{ SrvA , SrvB , SrvC , ... } where SrvA={PgmA, PgmB} ...<br />
<br />
And I will launch different Sessions within its services and programs.<br />

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
