lsof command: meaning of parenthesized info tacked onto end of NAME field?
by freethinker1957 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#58WWC)
When running lsof command on RHEL6.5 server, for some NAME entries, there is some additional info in parentheses.
E.g., the (ae16st01:/vol1/proj/magnolia_00619682) in the listing below.
In this case, ae16st01 is AWS storage node.
But the "/vol1/proj/magnolia_00619682" seems to have no relation to the "/process/hosted/tsmc/crn40lp/oa/v2p0_2a3/1P8M_5X0Y2Z0R0U_ALRDL/VCAD_SETUP" path.
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
prochost 32488 wtoner cwd DIR 0,34 70 7564580224 /process/hosted/tsmc/crn40lp/oa/v2p0_2a3/1P8M_5X0Y2Z0R0U_ALRDL/VCAD_SETUP (ae16st01:/vol1/proj/magnolia_00619682)
Lots of googling and scanning man pages and asking our local IT experts has turned up nothing. Anyone have a clue what this parenthesized info means?
