[hobbit] bug report: hobbit client for solaris can't report zombie process

[Haertig, David F (Dave)]

My guess is "yes".  You can see the way ps was originally called
specifies the output columns.  These are specific columns in a specific
order, and I'm sure the parser on the server side is depending on that.
"ps -eaf" does not spit out the same columns in the same order ... so I
think you're walking on pretty thin ice.

The existing ps command in hobbit-client-sunos.sh won't report zombie
processes.
I changed the long ps -A command to just "ps -eaf" and it can report the
zombie now.

Question is will "ps -eaf" break anything on hobbit server side ?

< #ps -A -o pid,ppid,user,stime,s,pri,pcpu,time,pmem,rss,vsz,args
< ps -eaf
