What is the use of bp.kill_all?

I have below information from google.

Starting and Stopping Netbackup
Stopping Netbackup
• /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/K77netbackup --> graceful shutdown 
• /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpps -a --> check for any remaining processes 
• /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/goodies/bp.kill_all ---> kills all remaining netbackup processes, not necessarily graceful 
• /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpps -a --> check for any remaining processes 
• kill -9 for any remaining. NOTE: unkillable processes may require a reboot 
Starting Netbackup
• /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/S77netbackup --> after bp.kill_all, to restart 
• /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/vmd

If you do 'ls -l' on both,

If you do 'ls -l' on both, they should be same size, meaning they are exactly the same.

OS command 'diff' can also be used to check for differences:

$ diff /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bp.kill_all  /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/goodies/bp.kill_all
