NAME

6       mysql_zap - kill processes that match a pattern
7

SYNOPSIS

9       mysql_zap [-signal] [-?Ift] pattern
10

DESCRIPTION

12       mysql_zap kills processes that match a pattern. It uses the ps command
13       and Unix signals, so it runs on Unix and Unix-like systems.
14
15       Invoke mysql_zap like this:
16
17           shell> mysql_zap [-signal] [-?Ift] pattern
18
19       A process matches if its output line from the ps command contains the
20       pattern. By default, mysql_zap asks for confirmation for each process.
21       Respond y to kill the process, or q to exit mysql_zap. For any other
22       response, mysql_zap does not attempt to kill the process.
23
24       If the -signal option is given, it specifies the name or number of the
25       signal to send to each process. Otherwise, mysql_zap tries first with
26       TERM (signal 15) and then with KILL (signal 9).
27
28       mysql_zap supports the following additional options:
29
30       ·   --help, -?, -I
31
32           Display a help message and exit.
33
34       ·   -f
35
36           Force mode.  mysql_zap attempts to kill each process without
37           confirmation.
38
39       ·   -t
40
41           Test mode. Display information about each process but do not kill
42           it.
