How to kill zombie process in Solaris 9?
Dear Team,
One zombie process has been found in our V890 server.
root@vomssz1> ps -ef | grep [d]efunct
root 4340 4144 0 0:00 <defunct>
root@vomssz1> ptree 4144
4144 /export/home/oracle/crs/10.1.0/bin/crsd.bin
4340 <defunct>
root@vomssz1> uname -a
SunOS vomssz1 5.9 Generic_118558-38 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V890
How to kill this zombie process? I've seen a solution in the document ID 1007095.1.
" Under solaris 9 or later. preap command may be used to reap zombie process".
1. How to use preap command to kill zombie process?
2. What are the things to be considered while executing preap command?
3. Will it impact the performance of the system?
