Description

The KILL_PROCESS_TREE option specifies whether or not UAG should always terminate the entire task process tree 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. 

Usage

Values

Valid values are:

• yes
  Agent always terminates the entire task process tree.
• no
  Agent attempts to terminate the entire task process tree, but children processes can avoid this by ignoring/handling the SIGTERM signal.

Default is no.
