How to kill a zombi work process safely

Hi all

What is best choice to kill a zombi work process which cannot be killed in SM50 with safe?

1. Kill a zombi process on unix command using Kill command

2. Let it be until SAP restart.

3. Etc (another good solution)

If first one is correct, I wonder Dispatcher can detect a zombi process killed, deallocated memory?

Plus If I kill a zombi process on unix command, dispatcher will try to make a new work process to make up the count of process?

Let me expain about internal architecture about it.

Best Regards

Hi,

You can kill the zombie work process by

kill -9 <PID of the work process>

or

by using dpmon from OS level
