# 发现有三个僵尸进程 3 zombie ，这是因为先杀死了父进程导致

shell > ps aux | grep Z
USER       PID %CPU %MEM    VSZ   RSS TTY      STAT START   TIME COMMAND
root      7811  0.0  0.0      0     0 ?        Zs   11:15   0:00 [yiic_elastic_kt] <defunct>
root      8446  0.0  0.0 103260   872 pts/1    R+   11:18   0:00 grep Z

# 不给面子，已经自动死了两个，估计是太阳出来了

shell > kill -9 7811

# 这样是杀不死的，还顽强的存活着

解决方法：

shell > ps -ef | grep defunct
root      8850  8840  0 11:20 ?        00:00:00 [yiic_elastic_kt] <defunct>
root      8851  8842  0 11:20 ?        00:00:00 [yiic_elastic_kt] <defunct>
root      8853  8843  0 11:20 ?        00:00:00 [yiic_elastic_kt] <defunct>
root      8855  8839  0 11:20 ?        00:00:00 [yiic_elastic_kt] <defunct>
root      9066  7621  0 11:20 pts/1    00:00:00 grep defunct

# 我去，又跑出来三个...

shell > ps -ef | grep defunct | awk ‘{print $3}‘ | xargs -i kill {}

# $3 是这些僵尸进程的父进程 PID ( PPID )，杀之！

shell > ps -ef | grep defunct
root     10008  7621  0 11:24 pts/1    00:00:00 grep defunct

# 已经灰飞烟灭！
