Description
Terminates the specified process on the switch.
Syntax Description
Default
N/A.
Usage Guidelines
If recommended by Extreme Networks Technical Support personnel, you can stop a running process.
The
forceful
option quickly terminates a process on demand. Unlike the
graceful
option, the process
is immediately shutdown without any of the normal process cleanup. The status of the operation is
displayed on the console. After a successful forceful termination of a process, a message similar to the
following appears:
Forceful termination success for snmpMaster
The
graceful
option terminates the process by allowing it to close all opened connections, notify peers
on the network, and other types of process cleanup. After this phase, the process is finally terminated.
After a successful graceful termination of a process, a message similar to the following appears:
Successful graceful termination for snmpSubagent
