Just want to document it here. A colleague request to kill multiple PID owned by different users. They don’t have any special privilege to kill process other than their own.<\/p>\n
Here’s a simple for…loop<\/em> script that will look for and kill each PID it found.<\/p>\n #!\/bin\/sh -x Line 1, tells which shell will execute the script<\/p>\n Line 2, gets all the PID to be killed and store them on a file.<\/p>\n Line 3, assigns a variable for the file<\/p>\n Line 4 to 7 is the for…do loop which basically gets each line on the file, store the value on $PID and then kill whatever value is in it on line 6.<\/p>\n Yucky script. Post a better one.<\/p>\n Thanks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Just want to document it here. A colleague request to kill multiple PID owned by different users.
