Answer / b.ramkumar
There are more that 15 different signal. Listing some of
the frequently used signals below
STOP - This signal will stop the currently running process.
The process will still stay in the task list
CONT - Will continue the stopped process
TERM - This singal will terminate the process
HUP - Will restart currently running process
NOHUP - Will reload the process (in the sense, only reads
the config file and bring the new changes to effect without
restarting...)
