doom(1)

Deliver a signal to a LAM process.

NAME

doom - Deliver a signal to a LAM process.

SYNTAX

doom [-h] [-<signo>] <nodes> [<processes>]

OPTIONS

-h

Print the command help menu.

-<signo>

Deliver the signal <signo>.

DESCRIPTION

Most MPI users will probably not need to use the doom command; see lamclean(1).

The doom command delivers a signal to one or more processes on one or more nodes. The signal is specified with the -<signo> option. Possible signals are:

4

terminate

5

suspend execution

6

continue execution

7

user defined

8

user defined

If a signal is not specified as an option, 4 (terminate) is delivered.

If no processes are specified, all application processes on that node will receive the signal. Processes can be specified in several ways, a mixture of which may be used on the command line. They are:

i<index_list>

by the index printed by state(1)

p<pid_list>

by process identifier

EXAMPLES

doom n0-7 i2

Terminate all processes with LAM index 2 on nodes 0 through 7.

doom h p9287-9290

Terminate local processes with process IDs 9287 through 9290.

doom -5 n0-7,11

Suspend execution of all application processes on nodes 0 through 7 and 11.
