Answer Posted / pradi

We can stop the running processes in unix using

1) Kill command
2) Udw command

Usage:

1)bash# Kill process_id

will stop the process and immedaitely it will restarts on
its own with a new pid.

2)bash# udw process: process_name

will stops the running process. And again we want to
restart it then issue the command

bash# udw process: process_name t

will restarts the process.
