what is the difference between KILL and KILL -9?
Answer Posted / ravi k srivastava
Kill allows the child processes to be killed before parent
process is killed.
Kill -9 forcefully kills the process without giving time to
child processes to be killed. In IPC architecture, its not
good idea to kill forcefully using "-9" option.
