Read/kill processes
Hi,
I read a set of processes with:
ps -eaf|grep oracleTRLV

The result is:
oracle 23253 1 0 15:14:11 ? 0:00 oracleTRLV (LOCAL=NO)
oracle 23301 1 0 15:15:07 ? 0:00 oracleTRLV (LOCAL=NO)
oracle 22914 1 0 15:11:19 ? 0:00 oracleTRLV (LOCAL=NO)

How to I kill the "oracleTRLV" ones? Is there an option for the "kill" command that allows me to do it?

Thank you.

If you can logon as root or as the oracle user you can kill those processes. Assuming killing them is actually a good idea, which you should check on FIRST:

Code:
ps -eaf|grep oracleTRLV |  \ 
while read one pid restofline
do
     kill -9 $pid
done

You can try something like that :

Code:
ps -eaf | grep oracleTRLV | while read ora_proc
do
     set `echo $ora_proc`
     kill $2
done

You can run it directly from the shell prompt: just cut and paste
