Re: problem with shell script
??
as already answered:
ps ax | awk '/[/]slapd /{n++} END{print n}'
searching '[s]lapd' will avoid grep auto-matching, but would still return
commands like vim /etc/slapd.conf or ./myscript-slapd
about pgrep, like the usual grep, it needs a better expression than the
process name, otherwise it would return the same results as a grep
however, a perfect match may be done looking for the exact path
('[/]usr/local/bin/slapd '), but would still fail when, for ex. running
`objdump /usr/local/bin/slapd -x'
also, if you want to count the number of outputed lines, using [p]grep and
wc makes two processes, while awk can do it all alone.
awk ftw!

Hello
I'm in trouble with a simple shell script that give erroneous value when
running ...
If I run commands interactively everything runs well
ps ax | grep slapd | grep -v grep | wc -l
1
If I run in the following shell script :
#!/bin/sh
SD=0 SD=`ps -ax | grep slapd | grep -v grep | wc -l` echo $SD
the result is 3 !!!
Advice: don't try to 'out-think' the machine -- make it _show_ you what it
is doing.
Might I suggest the oft-overlooked o option to ps(1)...
ps axo ucomm | grep -c slapd
I can't think of anything better to achieve what the OP wanted.
Naturally... for those that need more (that is, if you want to see
meaningful output rather than just the line-count)...
try:
ps axo pid,state,ucomm
or:
ps axo pid,command | awk '$2~/slapd/{print}'
naturally, for ``wider'' output:
ps axwwwo pid,command | awk '$2~/slapd/{print}'
And the creme-de-la-creme:
ps axwwwo pid,command | awk '$2~^slapd$||$2~/slapd${print}'
which will only print a line if the first word of the entire command is
wholly slapd or ends in /slapd.
Additional solutions/combinations left as an exercise to the reader.

Change the script to:
SD=`ps -ax | grep slapd | grep -v grep | tee /dev/tty | wc -l` echo $SD
I suspect thet the -name- of the script file has 'slapd' in it.

The [] creates a one-character class that doesn't match the regex. Easier to
type and grep should be a bit faster.
