1. To restart a process in Linux, you can use the command line.
2. First, open the terminal (Ctrl + Alt + T) and type the command: ps –e
3. This will list all running processes. Find the process you want to restart in the list and note the process ID (PID).
4. To restart the process, type the command: kill –s SIGTERM <PID> Replace <PID> with the process ID you noted in step 3. This will send a signal to the process to terminate.
5. To start the process again, type the command: nohup <command> & Replace <command> with the command used to start the process.
6. You can also use the service command to restart a process. For example, if the process is a web server, you can type the command: service <web server> restart Replace <web server> with the name of the web server you are using.
