Debug only

Privileged Mode

Issues a request to process management to kill the specified process.

Syntax

   KILL pin 


Parameters

pin

The process identification number (PIN) to be killed. If you are a privileged user, you may specify any PIN. If you are not privileged, you may specify any PIN that is a child of the process making this request.

Examples

   $nmdat > kill 8 

Tell process management to kill PIN 8.

Limitations, Restrictions.

This routine is implemented by calling the process management KILL routine. That routine does not kill a process until it is out of system code and is no longer critical. Debug waits until the request can be completed.

CAUTION: The output format of all System Debug commands is subject to change without notice. Programs that are developed to postprocess System Debug output should not depend on the exact format (spacing, alignment, number of lines, uppercase or lowercase, or spelling) of any System Debug command output.
