List of Java processes

Question

How can I list all Java processes in bash? I need an command line. I know there is command ps but I don't know what parameters I need to use.

Answer 1

try:

ps aux | grep java

and see how you get on

Answer 2

 ps -eaf | grep [j]ava

It's better since it will only show you the active processes not including this command that also got java string the [] does the trick

Answer 3

ps aux | grep java

or

$ ps -fea|grep -i java

Answer 4

I use this (good on Debian 8): alias psj='ps --no-headers -ww -C java -o pid,user,start_time,command'

Answer 5

You can use single command pgrep as well (doesn't require you to use pipes and multiple commands):

pgrep -fl java
