ecflow_client –zombie_get                # This will list all the zombies in the server.
ecflow_client --zombie_kill=<task-path>  # Ask the server kill the zombie process. Use ECF_KILL_CMD
ecflow_client –zombie_fail=<task-path>   # Ask the zombie to fail. This may result in another zombie because abort child command in the job, will be called.
ecflow_client –zombie_fob=<task-path>    # Used to unblock the child, allows the job to proceed. However this will only work for zombies where the password does not match.
ecflow_client –zombie_adopt=<task-path>  # Copies the password stored on the zombie onto the task. Allows the job to proceed, and update the state in the server
                                         # ( i.e. due to init,complete,abort).  
                                         # It is up to the user, to ensure that the zombie has been dealt with  before doing this.
ecflow_client –zombie_remove=<task-path> # Remove the zombie representation in the server. Typically this is done, when we are sure we have handled the zombie. 
                                         # The zombie will re-appear next time it communicates with server, if this is not the case.
ecflow_client –zombie_block =<task-path> # Ask the jobs to block at the child command in the job. Prevents the job from proceeding. 
                                         # (This is the default behaviour for the init, complete and abort child commands)
ecflow_client --zombie_kill=<task-path>  # Ask the server kill the zombie process. Use ECF_KILL_CMD
