The problem is that there is usually one line in /etc/rc that says:
export _BPX_JOBNAME='ETCRC'
Which causes all the processes started to get ETCRCn as the job name.
At some point the sample rc came with the INETD startup (comented out)
to change _BPX_JOBNAME, but that only changes it for INETD since it
isn't exported.
So depending on what else you are starting in /etc/rc, you may want to
do something like this:
# Start the SYSLOGD daemon which supplies logging functions for programs
_BPX_JOBNAME='SYSLOGD' /usr/sbin/syslogd -f /etc/syslog.conf &
# Start the INET daemon for remote login activity
_BPX_JOBNAME='INETD' /usr/sbin/inetd /etc/inetd.conf &
# Start Cron
_BPX_JOBNAME='CRON' /usr/sbin/cron &
