[FASTCGI] Kill fastcgi process

[Jean-Christophe Roux]

Hello,

I am running fastcgi processes on a Centos 5 box with Apache 2.2.

I am still confused on how I should kill processes before I release a new version of my app.

Currently, I am doing something like:

while [ 1 ]
do
  pid=`ps -C "${app_name}" -o pid --no-headers`
  if [[ -z ${pid} ]] ; then
    echo "No more pid"
    break
  else
    kill -9 ${pid}
    echo "Pid ${pid} killed"
  fi
done

(1) Is that a satisfactory way to kill those processes? 
(2) Does it make a difference that the process is a static or a dynamic one in order to make sure the older version of my app is completely removed?

Thank you
