comment What does GID mean?
@Ankit Under Solaris (and almost certainly others - I only use *BSD and Solaris, though), if the setgid bit is set on a directory, any new files created under that directory will have the same group owner as the directory itself, and will not inherit the primary group of (the user running) the creating process.

comment Cron job not running / not successful?
Do you get any error messages from cron? My guess is that you are falling foul of cron's very spartan environment. Try giving the full path to the mysql binary in the script and see if that helps.

comment How do I get a field in bash's job list using awk?
The integer value is probably the current PID followed by 2 - $$ is a shell variable that holds the current process's ID.

comment How to decrease ps aux output to a few lines?
Stop using the -e option to ps. It is that option that is causing you to get all the additional information that you say you don't want.

comment How to decrease ps aux output to a few lines?
Drop the -e flag on ps. It causes ps to print each process's environment, which is not what you show in the "I want" image.

head prints on its standard output what it reads on its standard input - it's all strings. Show us what you got, and what you want, and perhaps we can get you closer.
