mysql_zap (1) Linux Manual Page

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:

• –help, -?, -I

Display a help message and exit.

• -f

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

• -t

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