KILLJAIL(8)

NAME
killjail - stop or restart a jail

SYNOPSIS
killjail [ -h | -r ] [ -t timeout ] jailname ...

DESCRIPTION
killjail can either send signals to a jailer(8) process to manage the shutdown or restart of a jail or it can kill all the processes in a jail on it's own. When no options are given the jail is shutdown as follows:

1.  A stop request is sent to the jailer(8) process for the jail if there is one.

2.  Any remaining processes are killed with a SIGTERM.

OPTIONS

-h  Sends a halt request to a jail. The jailer must have a jailer(8) process running inside it.

-r  Sends a restart request to a jail. The jail must have a jailer(8) process running inside it.

-t timeout
    The timeout in seconds to wait between steps 1, 2 and 3 above. Defaults to 3.

BUGS
I'm sure they're out there. Let me know.
