KILL 

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.
