pmon not shows up as running on linux

743319Dec 28 2009 — edited Feb 26 2010

Hello everybody,
I have two database instances running on fedora 12 for my test purposes but I have a strange problem. when I run ps -ef | grep pmon I don't see any pmon running even though both of the databases are up and running? but when I run select PID, Program from v$process from sqlplus I can see that pmon is running. can someone tell me why i don't see pmon as running process when I do ps -ef?

actually it is not just pmon but all other oracle background processes not showing up under ps -ef.

Thanks,
Viral
