I have a start|stop|restart script for a custom app we have. After it tries to stop our process the correct way, it checks to see if it's gone, if not it tries to kill it, if that doesn't work kill -9.
If I run kill -9 on the PID from the command line it kills it and all is well. If I have the same command within my script it kills it properly, but it also kicks out some usage info. I know I could redirect stdout/stderr for the kill command within the script but I'd rather not if possible.
Anybody can help me? I need to know a specified folder diskspace usage, that's how much bytes that folder and its files/folders below spend on my storage.

This means that the function will look at the first 3 user arguments... (1 Reply)

kill
KILL(1) General Commands Manual KILL(1)NAME
kill, broke - print commands to kill processes
SYNOPSIS
kill name
broke
DESCRIPTION
Kill prints commands that will cause all processes called name and owned by the current user to be terminated. Use the send command of
81/2(1), or pipe the output of kill into rc(1) to execute the commands.
Kill suggests sending a kill note to the process; the same message delivered to the process's ctl file (see proc(3)) is a surer, if heavy
handed, kill, but is necessary if the offending process is ignoring notes.
Broke prints commands that will cause all processes in the Broken state and owned by the current user to go away. When a process dies
because of an error caught by the system, it may linger in the Broken state to allow examination with a debugger. Executing the commands
printed by broke lets the system reclaim the resources used by the broken processes.
