O/P same as on screen

Code:

#Random Scripts 4
#Desc:
clear
  echo "1. To see all processes currently running on the system"
  echo "2. To kill any given process"
  echo "Choose between the two"
  read x
  case $x in
  "1")print `ps aux`;;
  "2") echo "Choose a process to be killed"
     read y
check=`ps ax | grep $y`
echo $check;;
  *) echo "You selected wrong option";;
esac

Two things :

(1). I need output when the user enters '1' same as we get when we run command "ps ax" on the comand line.

(2). I want to kill a process which user enters in the variable "Y". But the problem I am facing is I am not able to get how to check for the database session.

Code:

amitj:/home/fnb/amitj/scripts1> ps ax |grep isql
 397410 pts/13 A     0:00 grep isql
 495652 pts/15 A     0:00 isql -Utcs2dev -STCSDEV2 -� -c -w300

I will enter 'Utcs2dev' as variable in Y but then how to get the process ID from it , and then only I can use kill -9 PID.

Advise !

LEARN ABOUT V7

kill

KILL(2) 							System Calls Manual							   KILL(2)

NAME

       kill  -	send signal to a process

SYNOPSIS

       kill(pid, sig);

DESCRIPTION

       Kill sends the signal sig to the process specified by the process number in r0.	See signal(2) for a list of signals.

       The sending and receiving processes must have the same effective user ID, otherwise this call is restricted to the super-user.

       If the process number is 0, the signal is sent to all other processes in the sender's process group; see tty(4).

       If the process number is -1, and the user is the super-user, the signal is broadcast universally except to processes 0 and 1, the scheduler
       and initialization processes, see init(8).

       Processes may send signals to themselves.

SEE ALSO

       signal(2), kill(1)

DIAGNOSTICS

       Zero is returned if the process is killed; -1 is returned if the process does not have the same effective user  ID  and	the  user  is  not
       super-user, or if the process does not exist.

ASSEMBLER

       (kill = 37.)
       (process number in r0)
       sys kill; sig

																	   KILL(2)
