NAME
       mysql_zap - kill processes that match a pattern


SYNOPSIS
       mysql_zap [-signal] [-?Ift] pattern


DESCRIPTION
       mysql_zap kills processes that match a pattern. It uses the ps command and Unix signals, so it runs on
       Unix and Unix-like systems.

       This program is deprecated as of MySQL 5.6.19 and is removed in MySQL 5.7.

       Invoke mysql_zap like this:

           shell> mysql_zap [-signal] [-?Ift] pattern

       A process matches if its output line from the ps command contains the pattern. By default, mysql_zap asks
       for confirmation for each process. Respond y to kill the process, or q to exit mysql_zap. For any other
       response, mysql_zap does not attempt to kill the process.

       If the -signal option is given, it specifies the name or number of the signal to send to each process.
       Otherwise, mysql_zap tries first with TERM (signal 15) and then with KILL (signal 9).

       mysql_zap supports the following additional options:

       •   --help, -?, -I

           Display a help message and exit.

       •   -f

           Force mode.  mysql_zap attempts to kill each process without confirmation.

       •   -t

           Test mode. Display information about each process but do not kill it.
