I completely agree with this sentiment and I'll add that I'm fustrated that no indication of which version of HP-UX was mentioned...I suspect 10.20. But still, if you find a thread to be fustrating, please just ignore it and move on.

NAME

       killall - kill all active processes

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/killall [signal]

DESCRIPTION

       killall is used by shutdown(1M) to kill all active processes not directly related to the shutdown procedure.

       killall terminates all processes with open files so that the mounted file systems will be unbusied and can be unmounted.

       killall sends signal (see kill(1)) to the active processes. If no signal is specified, a default of 15 is used.

       The killall command can be run only by the super-user.
