Re: buildbot down?

Would taskkill.exe help?

For example, "taskkill.exe /im dumpcap.exe" , etc.

I've also used WMIC in the past to save ProcessID's of tasks so you can later kill specific instances of a task instead 
of all of them with the same name.  I'd refer you to the dumpcap.bat file posted on https://wiki.wireshark.org/Tools 
for how I did that.

    It's back up.

    Is there a straightforward equivalent to "kill -9 $( lsof -t
    /path/to/buildbot )" on Windows?


Difficult to identify which process you want to kill with
Stop-Process.  With PS 4.0 and later you can run ((Get-Process
-IncludeUserName).where({$_.username -AND $_.username -notmatch
"^NT"})) to get the processes owned by the user account running the
command, but there's still too many in there that shouldn't be stopped.

Maybe Get-Process | Where-Object -Property ProcessName -match
".*(Process1|Process2|Process3).*" | Stop-Process would do if the
number of processes to look for isn't too bad.

How difficult would it be to parse the output of the Sysinternals "Handle" utility
in PS? That would presumably tell us which process has the build directory
locked while limiting the risk of clobbering any other Buildbot instances that
happen to be running.
