.SH "NAME"
mysql_zap \- kill processes that match a pattern
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.HP \w'\fBmysql_zap\ [\-\fR\fB\fIsignal\fR\fR\fB]\ [\-?Ift]\ \fR\fB\fIpattern\fR\fR\ 'u
\fBmysql_zap [\-\fR\fB\fIsignal\fR\fR\fB] [\-?Ift] \fR\fB\fIpattern\fR\fR
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBmysql_zap\fR
kills processes that match a pattern\&. It uses the
\fBps\fR
command and Unix signals, so it runs on Unix and Unix\-like systems\&.
.PP
This program is deprecated as of MySQL 5\&.6\&.19 and is removed in MySQL 5\&.7\&.
.PP
Invoke
\fBmysql_zap\fR
like this:
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
shell> \fBmysql_zap [\-\fR\fB\fIsignal\fR\fR\fB] [\-?Ift] \fR\fB\fIpattern\fR\fR
.fi
.if n \{\
.RE
.\}
.PP
A process matches if its output line from the
\fBps\fR
command contains the pattern\&. By default,
\fBmysql_zap\fR
asks for confirmation for each process\&. Respond
y
to kill the process, or
q
to exit
\fBmysql_zap\fR\&. For any other response,
\fBmysql_zap\fR
does not attempt to kill the process\&.
.PP
If the
\fB\-\fR\fB\fIsignal\fR\fR
option is given, it specifies the name or number of the signal to send to each process\&. Otherwise,
\fBmysql_zap\fR
tries first with
TERM
(signal 15) and then with
KILL
(signal 9)\&.
.PP
\fBmysql_zap\fR
supports the following additional options:
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
\fB\-\-help\fR,
\fB\-?\fR,
\fB\-I\fR
.sp
Display a help message and exit\&.
.RE
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
\fB\-f\fR
.sp
Force mode\&.
\fBmysql_zap\fR
attempts to kill each process without confirmation\&.
.RE
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
\fB\-t\fR
.sp
Test mode\&. Display information about each process but do not kill it\&.
