kill processes for a user

[Gerard Powell]

how do I kill multiple processes for a particular user

[Kapil Jha]

ps -u will list all the processes running by particular user.
ps -u |awk '{print $1}'|xargs kill

Hope this would help.
BR,

hi,

You can try:

pidusr=$(ps -ef | grep yogeeraj | awk '{print $2}')
kill -9 $pidusr


or just:

kill -9 $(ps -ef | grep yogeeraj | awk '{print $2}')


hope this helps!

kind regards

ps -ef|grep user_name|awk '{print $1}'|xargs -i kill -9 {}
