ANOTHER PROCESS FINDER

psfind command:

Here is a quick script that you can use to filter the list of active processes to only those that contain a specified string.

Edit into the file
/usr/local/bin/psfind

ps -ef|grep -i $1|grep -iv grep

Change permissions so that it is executable
#chmod a+x,go-w /usr/local/bin/psfind

Use it:
#/usr/local/bin/psfind oracle
