Michael,

try with additional options on the ps command, eventually with the help of grep. This is what I use just to have an idea of how many java process I'm running on my system:

ps fax | grep java | wc -l

If you take off the 'wc -l' you should have a list of all the process that contains the word 'java'. Maybe in your case you need to change that word. And, probably, if you want the entire command line, you need to increase the number of columns for the display (i.e.: ps fax --cols=400)
