{bb} bb-proctab issues

[Shad Taylor <shad.taylor@cicadacorp.com>]

Brethren,

I'm running into a strange issue monitoring long process names/paths.  I
have been monitoring several processes for quite some time with no issue
(including the first java process listed in the below snip from the
bb-proctab in question):

localhost : : "/opt/com/j2sdk1.4.2_05/bin/java -server -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m
-XX:MaxNewSize=24m -XX:NewSize=24m -XX:SurvivorRatio=128
-XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -
XX:MaxTenuringThreshold=0 -XX:CMSInitiatingOccupancyFraction=60
-Djava.endorsed.dirs=/export/home/cpluser/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28/co;>=1"
-------------------------

Today, I added the following to the bb-proctab (completely separate
localhost line . . . I have tried consolidating to one line as well):

localhost : : "java -Xmx256m -classpath
.:gateway.jar:lib/jsockets1_9_2.jar:lib/live.jar:lib/xerces.jar
com.cicada.news.thomson.CThomsonGateway /export/home/c
pluser/cmpr/thomson-gateway/cfg/gateway.properties;>=1" "java -Xmx256m
-classpath .:gateway.jar:lib/jsockets1_9_2.jar:lib/live.jar:lib/xerces.jar
com.cicada.n
ews.thomson.CThomsonGateway
/export/home/cpluser/cmpr/thomson-gateway/cfg/gateway2.properties;>=1" "java
-Xmx256m -classpath .:gateway.jar:lib/jsockets1_9_2.j
ar:lib/live.jar:lib/xerces.jar com.cicada.news.thomson.CThomsonGateway
/export/home/cpluser/cmpr/thomson-gateway/cfg/gateway3.properties;>=1"
------------------------

Now my files check shows:

&red -XX >=1 - not running, requires at least 1 
&red -Xmx1024m >=1 - not running, requires at least 1 
&red -Xms1024m >=1 - not running, requires at least 1
&green java -Xmx256m -classpath . >=1 - 3 instances running
------------------------

If I remark out the first "localhost" line, it will obviously remove the
"red" failed checks for the process listing that has always worked
previously.  If I remark out the second localhost line (the addition added
today)from my bb-proctab, the first check then processes as usual and does
not fail either.  

I can understand that the process checking may not grep the entire name, and
so it shows only the "java -Xmx256m -classpath ." for the three individual
processes I actually have listed (for the new addition).  What I do not
understand is why the first java check fails when I add these three new
processes I'm now monitoring?

If anyone can point me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate
it.
