When was the script started? What I want is, -bash-3.2$ ps -aef | grep 29137 jeeadm 9794 1190 0 09:22 pts/2 00:00:00 grep 29137 jeeadm 29137 1 0 Sep02 ? 00:00:21 Java Second Row, Fifth Column entry, as in the output it's just showing the date, Anyway to get the full time-stamp?

You can use the `lstart` field for this:


# ps -aefO lstart | head
