------------------------------------

             Summary: No SIGKILL in python signal library on Windows
                 Key: ATLAS-1733
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ATLAS-1733
             Project: Atlas
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components:  atlas-core
    Affects Versions: 0.9-incubating
         Environment: Windows 7
            Reporter: Graham Wallis
            Priority: Minor


[I am new to Atlas and this is my first JIRA issue so apologies if I have 
omitted any necessary information or steps.]

There is no SIGKILL signal in the python signal library on Windows, so the 
import in atlas_stop.py fails.
There are two ways I can suggest that we fix it:
1) introduce platform-specific code into atlas_stop.py
2) wrap the python os.kill function
My preference is for the former as it is a small and localized change. 
In either case the use of SIGTERM should be sufficient on Windows, as the 
existing python os.kill() function will open the process and terminate it, 
which is supposed to be equivalent to a SIGKILL (-9) on Linux.
