DOOM(1)                          LAM COMMANDS                          DOOM(1)



NAME
       doom - Deliver a signal(2,7) to a LAM process.

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

OPTIONS
       -h        Print the command help menu.

       -<signo>  Deliver the signal(2,7) <signo>.

DESCRIPTION
       Most MPI users(1,5) will probably not need to use the doom command; see lam-
       clean(1).  This command is only installed  if(3,n)  LAM/MPI  was  configured
       with the --with-trillium switch.

       The  doom  command delivers a signal(2,7) to one or more processes on one or
       more nodes.  The signal(2,7) is specified with the -<signo> option.   Possi-
       ble signals are:

       4    terminate

       5    suspend execution

       6    continue execution

       7    user defined

       8    user defined

       If  a signal(2,7) 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(1,8) 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.
