Re: Oracle shadow process parent id of 1

Genrally, parent id is the pid of UNIX process who made connection to database.
That is if I did
sqlplus /nolog
conn scott/tigger

my process say is 1000,
then Oracle will start a shadow process say process id of 1001. ps -aef will
show parent id of process 1001 as 1000 and not 1.

Somehow, in Oracle 10.1.0.4 on my HP unix machine, parent process id is 1
for all oracle shadow processes. Received on Sat Oct 22 2005 - 14:24:00 CDT
