ecflow.ZombieUserActionType

ZombieUserActionType is used define an automated response. See class ZombieAttr

This can be either on the client side or on the server side

client side:

fob: The child command always succeeds, i.e allows job to complete without blocking
fail: The child command is asked to fail.
block: The child command is asked to block. This is the default action for init,complete and abort child commands

server side:

adopt: Allows the password supplied with the child commands, to be adopted by the server
kill: Kills the zombie process associated with the child command using ECF_KILL_CMD. path zombies will need to be killed manually. If kill is specified for path zombies they will be fobed, i.e allowed to complete without blocking the job.
remove: ecflow_server removes the zombie from the zombie list. The child continues blocking. If the process is still running, the zombie may well re-appear

Note: Only adopt will allow the child command to continue and change the node tree
