mysql_zap

MYSQL_ZAP(1)						       MySQL Database System						      MYSQL_ZAP(1)

NAME

       mysql_zap - kill processes that match a pattern

SYNOPSIS

       mysql_zap [-signal] [-?Ift] pattern

DESCRIPTION

       mysql_zap kills processes that match a pattern. It uses the ps command and Unix signals, so it runs on Unix and Unix-like systems.

       Invoke mysql_zap like this:

	   shell> mysql_zap [-signal] [-?Ift] pattern

       A process matches if its output line from the ps command contains the pattern. By default, mysql_zap asks for confirmation for each
       process. Respond y to kill the process, or q to exit mysql_zap. For any other response, mysql_zap does not attempt to kill the process.

       If the -signal option is given, it specifies the name or number of the signal to send to each process. Otherwise, mysql_zap tries first
       with TERM (signal 15) and then with KILL (signal 9).

       mysql_zap supports the following additional options:

       o   --help, -?, -I

	   Display a help message and exit.

       o   -f

	   Force mode.	mysql_zap attempts to kill each process without confirmation.

       o   -t

	   Test mode. Display information about each process but do not kill it.
