I am newbie, but I know diff in kill and kill -9.
Heres my o/p:
[root@localhost ~]# ps ax | grep yum
16794 ? S 0:05 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/yum install lsof
17097 pts/1 S+ 0:04 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/yum install lsof
18082 pts/3 S+ 0:00 grep yum
[root@localhost ~]# kill -9 16794 17097
[root@localhost ~]# ps ax | grep yum
16794 ? S 0:05 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/yum install lsof
17097 pts/1 S+ 0:04 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/yum install lsof
18084 pts/3 S+ 0:00 grep yum
[root@localhost ~]# killall -9 yum
[root@localhost ~]# ps ax | grep yum
16794 ? S 0:05 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/yum install lsof
17097 pts/1 S+ 0:04 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/yum install lsof
18087 pts/3 S+ 0:00 grep yum
The /var/run/yum.pid does not exist (removed when I followed steps in
my 2'nd msg).
