HI managers,

Thanks to every one who replied to my question

Casper Dik's answer was more related to my problem.

"
No, it points to the fact that you do not have a 64 bit version of
/usr/ucb/ps installed. (proc 738 is likely a 64 bit process). "

I installed 64 bit version of ps from product folder in Solaris CD.

Sincerely,
Raghu
