An "application" does not have an "instance id". It has a "process id" though. If that is what you mean then you will have to use Runtime.exec() to set of a "ps" command (or the OS specific equivalent as ps is a Unix/Linx command).
IOW, this is not the sort of thing Java was meant for. (As you've been told before.)

try writing code in the most stupid way and debugging will be easy...
