1 利用pgrep 匹配名字 
if test $( pgrep -f $1 | wc -l ) -eq 0
then
echo "进程不存在"
else
echo "存在进程"
fi

apple 3024 3004 0 14:11 pts/0 00:00:00 ps -ef 
apple@ubuntu:~$ 
1.ps -p 
ps -p 根据给定的pid参数判断是否有这个进程,如果有这个进程正常退出,退出值0.如果没有这个进程异常退出,退出值1. 
例如: 
apple@ubuntu:~$ ps -p 2442 
PID TTY TIME CMD 
2442 ? 00:00:00 sshd 
apple@ubuntu:~$ echo $? 
0 
apple@ubuntu:~$ ps -p 1234 
PID TTY TIME CMD 
apple@ubuntu:~$ echo $? 
1 
apple@ubuntu:~$ 
2.pgrep 
pgrep根据给出的进程名判断是否有这个名字的进程。如果有这个名字的进程正常退出,退出值0.如果没有这个名字的进程异常退出,退出值1. 
例如: 
apple@ubuntu:~$ pgrep sshd 
2442 
2994 
3003 
apple@ubuntu:~$ echo $? 
0 
apple@ubuntu:~$ pgrep sshddd 
apple@ubuntu:~$ echo $? 
1 
apple@ubuntu:~$ 
3./proc 
每个进程都会在/proc下有一个以进程PID命名的目录。 
例如: 
apple@ubuntu:~$ ls /proc/2442 
ls: cannot read symbolic link /proc/2442/cwd: Permission denied 
ls: cannot read symbolic link /proc/2442/root: Permission denied 
ls: cannot read symbolic link /proc/2442/exe: Permission denied 
attr clear_refs cpuset exe io loginuid mountinfo net pagemap sched smaps status wchan 
auxv cmdline cwd fd latency maps mounts oom_adj personality schedstat stat syscall 
cgroup coredump_filter environ fdinfo limits mem mountstats oom_score root sessionid statm task 
apple@ubuntu:~$ 
可以根据上面的事实,编写bash脚本判断一个进程是否存在。下面以第3个事实,编写脚本。其他的脚本类似。 
#!/bin/bash
if [ -z $1 ]
then
echo "Need a pid argument"
exit 1
fi
if [ -d /proc/$1 ];then
exit 0
else
exit 1
fi
