how to find killed zombie processes in linux-CodePudding

I have a question regarding how I can check the killed zombie processes which are already killed so I need to check the processes IDs for further checking.

Thank you in advance,

Best Regards,

CodePudding user response：

KILL signal terminates the program, there should not be any more of it left then so you don't have to check.

Program can ignore, different, TERM signal but I don't think there is a general way to track what program has received SIGTERM but it is not terminated yet. You would have to track this yourself AFAIK. Unix kill command uses SIGTERM by default.

CodePudding user response：

dmesg | egrep -i -B100 'killed process'

## OR
egrep -i 'killed process' /var/log/messages
egrep -i -r 'killed process' /var/log

## OR
journalctl -xb | egrep -i 'killed process'

This solution may meet your needs.
