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
       always only prints out processes	for one	jail.

       The environment is purged properly before running ps(1) in the jail  in
       order 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.
