SYMPTOM(s):
kill -9 <user>
Can see user in promon option 1 when user is not logged to the database
Can't see user process on proshut
User is locking a record
CAUSE:
Kill -9 does not send a signal that can Progress trap
FIX:
Database shutdown is required to terminate the process
Progress requires specific steps before a user can get disconnected. Issuing a Kill ?9 <user> will by pass necessary steps to release resources and write necessary log messages.
Progress expects a -1 to be sent when a user sends a hang-up signal in order to clean up after the user processes and gracefully disconnect from the database. When Progress receives a signal like a kill -9 Progress will not be able to trap the signal.
