I didn’t know that, good to know.

They could have send a SIGTERM by default instead of a SIGKILL. I would not have corrupt everything 😅

Yes: same command name, two different semantics:

The Linux one

Cross-Unix scripting is fun ☺️

First, the classical typo in a bash script:

set FOLDER=/some/folder

rm -rf ${FODLER}/

which is why I like to add a set -u at the begining of a script.

The second one is not with a Linux box but a mainframe running AIX:

If on Linux killall java kills all java processes, on AIX it just ignore the arguments and kill all processes that the user can kill. Adios the CICS region 😬 (on the test env. thankfully)

Happy birthday Debian🥳
