Description

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