> *Reproduce steps*
> # Setup a hadoop cluster
> # Stop resource manager : yarn --daemon stop resourcemanager
> # Stop node manager : yarn --daemon stop nodemanager
> WARNING: nodemanager did not stop gracefully after 5 seconds: Trying to kill with kill -9
> ERROR: Unable to kill 20325
> it always gets "Unable to kill <nm_pid>" error message, this gives user impression there is something wrong with the node manager process because it was not able to be forcibly killed. But in fact, the kill command works as expected.
> This was because hadoop-functions.sh did not check process existence after kill properly. Currently it checks the process liveness right after the kill command
> {code}
> ...
> kill -9 "${pid}" >/dev/null 2>&1
> if ps -p "${pid}" > /dev/null 2>&1; then
>       hadoop_error "ERROR: Unable to kill ${pid}"
> ...
> {code}
> when resource manager stopped before node managers, it always takes some additional time until the process completely terminates. I tried to print output of {{ps -p <nm_pid>}} in a while loop after kill -9, and found following
> {noformat}
> 16212 ?        00:00:11 java <defunct>
> 0
>   PID TTY          TIME CMD
> 16212 ?        00:00:11 java <defunct>
> 0
>   PID TTY          TIME CMD
> 16212 ?        00:00:11 java <defunct>
> 0
>   PID TTY          TIME CMD
> 1
>   PID TTY          TIME CMD
> 1
>   PID TTY          TIME CMD
> 1
>   PID TTY          TIME CMD
> ...
> {noformat}
> in the first 3 times of the loop, the process did not terminate so the exit code of {{ps -p}} are still {{0}}
> *Proposal of a fix*
> Firstly I was thinking to add a more comprehensive pid check, it checks the pid liveness until reaches the HADOOP_STOP_TIMEOUT, but this seems to add too much complexity. Second fix was to simply add a {{sleep 3}} after {{kill -9}}, it should fix the error in most cases with relative small changes to the script.
