Hi,

I hope the following article throws some light on this issue.
https://linuxhint.com/resolve-why-kill-may-not-work-in-linux-how-to-resolve-it/
https://www.tecmint.com/how-to-kill-a-process-in-linux/

Its not a HPE Hardware issue.

Thank You!
I work with HPE but opinions expressed here are mine.
