Kill -HUP per name process




Posted by CleberDantas, 09-26-2009, 10:35 PM
Hello all, I want send kill -HUP in process via name, no id. Is possible? I want reload (using kill -HUP) earch 1h and necessary send via name.

You can use the command 'killall' If you exclude -s HUP, the default the signal sent is SIGTERM.

Which was the service that your tried to reload? Could you paste the exact command? Note that this works only on linux daemons as processes not started with nohup would hangup on sighup.

O start aplications via, example, ./server & I want reload services with name server warch 2hs.

killall -1 process will make 'process' re-read its config as well

Start the server using the following command nohup ./server & and then kill -s HUP

If you are having difficulty in finding the process name..you can also try this first find the process id using ps -ef | grep process_name | awk {'print $2'} and store it in a variable. You can now use kill -HUP $i..
