Clear zombie without reboot (urgent)

2007-12-25 3:30:00

Hi Guru's,
I am running Solaris 8 on a production
box and the / is at critical 98%. On checking I found
unusual space usage by /var/tmp , I also detected
found a few zombie processes.

How may i clear up the defunct processes without
requiring a reboot. In Solaris 9 i am aware of the
preap command is there an option to do that in version
8.

Thanks,
A.A
