<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi, fellows:<br></div><div><br></div><div>How do I remove a dead
process (D-state process) wrapped as a Systemd service unit? The
process's parent is systemd (pid=1) and I still did not find a way to
remove such process without rebooting. I have tried the following:</div><div><br></div><div>$ systemctl restart <my_service> # timeout</div><div>$ systemctl daemon-reexec</div><div>$ kill -9 <pid of my process> # won't work of course</div><div><br></div><div>Or anyone knows of hacks that do the trick?</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks in advance!</div></div>
