the process doesn`t die

[Gerardo Tagliani]

Hi!

I have a process running in my redhat server, that is holding my tape unit:

# ps -ef | grep mt
root     12809     1  0 11:21 ?        00:00:00 mt -f /dev/nst0 status

.....

then a make:

# kill -9 12809    

# ps -ef | grep mt
root     12809     1  0 11:21 ?        00:00:00 mt -f /dev/nst0 status

why, it doesn`t die??

somebody can giveme a idea. I need to kill that process!!

Thanks!!
