NAME

srmkill- send a signal to processes attached to a limits database entry

SYNOPSIS

srmkill [-s signame | -signum ] [-l | -u] user...

DESCRIPTION

The srmkill command sends a signal to all processes that are currently attached to the lnode specified by the user argument for which the caller has permission.

If no signal is specified, then by default SIGTERM is sent.

The user argument is interpreted as a login name, unless no such name is found in the password map, in which case, if it is numeric, it is interpreted as a UID.

OPTIONS

The mutually exclusive options -l and -u determine the interpretation of the user argument:

-l

Interpret user argument as a login name only.

-u

Interpret user argument as a numeric UID only. This option also allows the use of UIDs that are not listed in the password map.

-s signame

Specify the signal to send, using one of the symbolic names defined in the <sys/signal.h> description. Values of signame will be recognized in a case-independent fashion, without the SIG prefix.

-signum

Specify the signal to send, where signum is a numeric value as defined in the <sys/signal.h> description.

EXAMPLES

Any of these commands:

srmkill -l user1

srmkill -s TERM user1

srmkill -s term user1

sends a SIGTERM signal to the processes currently attached to the user1 lnode.
