I see no "performance issue", just a "ps"-output. To assess the performance situation of your system it would be necessary to the output of:
and, depending on the configuration of your system ("lscfg") probably some other.
Anyways, to kill the processes is easy. You see the columns labeled PID in your output:
then wait a few seconds, issue another "ps". If <pid> isn't gone:
I still have serious doubts that this will help your situation any and i fear it might make you situation even worse, but there you go. My recommendation is not to do it, but you are free to do as you please.
Does anyone know what the equivalent command to pwait on Solaris is on DG/UX. I need my script to kick off a process and wait till it is complete before continuing with the script. (4 Replies)

Did not use 'wait' yet.
How I understand by now the wait works only for child processes, started background.
Is there any other way to watch completion of any, not related process (at least, a process, owned by the same user?)

Hi,
I can't seem to make sense of this. My wait time is showing really high but vmstat's and topas are showing normal usage.

Hello All,
The system concerned has multiple processes communicating with each other using shared memory. These processes use semaphores to protect data being used amongst them. The "key" would uniquely identifies the particular semaphore corresponding to a resource for the various processes.

kill
KILL(1) BSD General Commands Manual KILL(1)NAME
kill -- terminate or signal a process
SYNOPSIS
kill [-s signal_name] pid ...
kill -l [exit_status]
kill -signal_name pid ...
kill -signal_number pid ...
DESCRIPTION
The kill utility sends a signal to the processes specified by the pid operands.
Only the super-user may send signals to other users' processes.
The options are as follows:
-s signal_name
A symbolic signal name specifying the signal to be sent instead of the default TERM.
-l [exit_status]
If no operand is given, list the signal names; otherwise, write the signal name corresponding to exit_status.
-signal_name
A symbolic signal name specifying the signal to be sent instead of the default TERM.
-signal_number
A non-negative decimal integer, specifying the signal to be sent instead of the default TERM.
The following PIDs have special meanings:
-1 If superuser, broadcast the signal to all processes; otherwise broadcast to all processes belonging to the user.
Some of the more commonly used signals:
1 HUP (hang up)
2 INT (interrupt)
3 QUIT (quit)
6 ABRT (abort)
9 KILL (non-catchable, non-ignorable kill)
14 ALRM (alarm clock)
15 TERM (software termination signal)
Some shells may provide a builtin kill command which is similar or identical to this utility. Consult the builtin(1) manual page.
EXIT STATUS
The kill utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
EXAMPLES
Terminate the processes with PIDs 142 and 157:
kill 142 157
Send the hangup signal (SIGHUP) to the process with PID 507:
kill -s HUP 507
Terminate the process group with PGID 117:
kill -- -117
SEE ALSO builtin(1), csh(1), killall(1), ps(1), sh(1), kill(2), sigaction(2)STANDARDS
The kill utility is expected to be IEEE Std 1003.2 (``POSIX.2'') compatible.
HISTORY
A kill command appeared in Version 3 AT&T UNIX.
BUGS
A replacement for the command ``kill 0'' for csh(1) users should be provided.
