Example: list processes using the -l option
By default, only the missing processes are displayed. To also show the processes that are found on the system, use the
-l
switch. For example, the following command displays the HP
Operations Manager for Windows processes that are running:
command prompt: vpstat -8 -l
result:

-a option, which lists all the processes on the
system.
You can get additional information about the process by using
the optional -d and -m parameters. The
-d option displays process details such as current and
peak working set size, page faults, image size, base address, and
entry point.
The -m option lists all modules (for example, DLLs)
that are loaded into the process address space with the
corresponding version and image file name.
The -k option allows you to terminate a particular
process (forced kill). This must be specified either by its PID or
a process name.
