kill processes

[treents]

Hi,

I was wondering whether one could try to implement the "-a --all" option also for the command "verdi process kill"? This option is available for example for the "verdi process play" command. So is there a general restriction why this would not work?

I think it would be useful to be able to kill all running processes or all running processes with a specific label. (for example if you spot an error in your workchain, so you do not have to wait until your submitted workchains will have failed.)

Kind regards,

Timo

Hi Timo,

 

You can use bash command line tools, pipelines and expansions to achieve this.

 

For example – to kill process with some labels:

 

verdi process kill `verdi process list | grep <xx> | grep <xy> | awk ‘{print $1}’`

 

`grep` selects specific label(s)/ process types, and `awk` takes the first column which contains the pks. Then the output is used as argument for `verdi process kill`.

 

To kill all:

 

verdi process kill `verdi process list -r | awk ‘{print $1}’`

 

Best wishes,

Bonan
