# Delete a Process

To remove a process from a server, use the following command:

`swadm delete_process` `machine_id``` `process_name``` `process_instance`

where:

| • | `machine_id` is the unique identifier for the server that you want to remove the process from.

| • | `process_name` is the process name of the server process you want to delete.

If `process_name` is `BG`, `BGPREDICT`, `DBQD`, `DLMGR`, `IAPJMS`, `SPO`, or `DIRECTOR`, the process is removed as soon as Process Sentinels re-cache the changes to the `process_config` table. If `process_name` is any other process (i.e. a foreground process), the process is not removed until iProcess Engine is restarted.

| • | `process_instance` is the number of the process instance that you want to delete.

## Example

If you want to remove an instance of a `Background Mbox Daemon` process so that instead of having four running instances of the process, you will only have three, enter the following command:

    # swadm delete_process 2 bg 4

This command specifies that on the server with an ID of `2`, the fourth instance of the `Background Mbox Daemon (BG)` process is removed.
