NAME
     jps -- prints processes running in a jail

SYNOPSIS
     jps -i jail
     jps jail [ps-options ...]

DESCRIPTION
     The jps utility prints out a list of the processes running in a given jail.
     When run with the -i argument it just prints out the process ids. Otherwise
     it  prints out a full ps(1) type listing for the processes in the jail. The
     ps(1) formatting and other options are available for use.

OPTIONS
     -i 	    Only print out the process ids.

     jail	    Either a jail id (which is an integer) or a jail host name.

     ps-options     Formatting and other to be	passed	to  ps(1)  when  listing
		    processes in the jail.

NOTES
     It  is  possible to run two jails with the same host name.  jps however al-
     ways only prints out processes for one jail.

     The environment is purged properly before running ps(1) in the jail in  or-
     der to prevent unwanted information from leaking into the jail.

     jps needs a valid /dev/null device in the jail. If it doesn't exit for some
     reason it is automatically created.
