We can't do your homework. create script at your end and get back if any error/issue

BTW You can use kill and pkill command.

Code:

# kill signal PID
# pkill signal process name

signals
9=KILL
15=TERMINATE

for more signals

Code:

man 7 signal

Thanks for information ,
now i can kill the application through process name using pkill command but how to get the exact process name of my application.

Hi,
Get the name of binaries first

ps -ef | grep -i "binary name"

once you get the pid of that
kill it

kill -9 pid

or killall processname

You can also use killall to kill all processes related to a certain name, like so:

Code:

killall -SEGV process_name

Hi ,

This way using process id i am able to kill the applications but my main purpose was to automate it, instead of searching for PID and killing it, i just wanted to kill all the application in one go.
Eg. i have 4 applications runing.

1- a.sh
2- b.sh
3- c.sh
4 -d.sh

now i will write and application that will kill these 4 applications. i dont know service name of my applications when i try to get service name using pgrep -l a.sh then there is no output. please help.

Application or your service is shell script?

Find below output of grep command for my application.

[root@imi dump]# ps aux|grep imiusr
root 8112 0.0 0.0 61160 744 pts/4 S+ 15:52 0:00 grep imiusr
root 12279 0.0 0.0 63844 1120 ? S Sep14 0:00 sh imiusr.sh
root 12280 0.0 1.2 1482284 103232 ? Sl Sep14 2:28 /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_18/bin/java -Xmx1024m -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=172.16.66.37 -jar /app/provisionmonitor/imiusr/libs/imiusr.jar /app/provisionmonitor/imiusr/config/imiusr.properties /app/provisionmonitor/imiusr/config/log4j.properties 9999

Now i want to kill this application by service name.
