You can of course on your turn exit abc.sh with the $!, right ??
so
kill -9 $pid
newpid=$!
exit $newpid
In your Parent program you can capture this exit status again and re-use it.

fs_whereis
FS_WHEREIS(1) AFS Command Reference FS_WHEREIS(1)
NAME
fs_whereis - Reports each file server housing a file or directory
SYNOPSIS
fs whereis [-path <dir/file path>+] [-help]
fs whe [-p <dir/file path>+] [-h]
DESCRIPTION
The fs whereis command returns the name of each file server machine that houses the volume containing each directory or file named by the
-path argument.
OPTIONS
-path <dir/file path>+
Names each AFS file or directory for which to return the host file server machine. Partial pathnames are interpreted relative to the
current working directory, which is also the default value if this argument is omitted.
-help
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.
OUTPUT
The output includes a line for each specified directory or file. It names the file server machine on which the volume that houses the
specified directory or file resides. A list of multiple machines indicates that the directory or file is in a replicated volume.
Machine names usually have a suffix indicating their cell membership. If the cell is not clear, use the fs whichcell command to display the
cell in which the directory or file resides. To display the cell membership of the local machine, use the fs wscell command.
EXAMPLES
The following example indicates that volume housing the directory /afs/abc.com resides is replicated on both "fs1.abc.com" and
"fs3.abc.com":
% fs whereis -path /afs/abc.com
File /afs/abc.com is on hosts fs1.abc.com fs3.abc.com
