Description
The KILL_PROCESS_TREE option specifies whether UAG should always terminate the entire task process tree or not when the Cancel command is issued. Normally, the entire process tree is terminated, but if one or more of the Children processes ignore/handle the initial SIGTERM signal, they will continue to run even after the task is cancelled. If KILL_PROCESS_TREE is enabled, however, all descendant processes will be terminated regardless of whether the SIGTERM signal is ignored/handled or not.
Note
This option is available only for Linux/Unix systems.
