what to do when a Service or BPD in loop in IBM BPM and kill process does not work

Question

During testing and development, a business process definition or service might accidentally enter into an infinite loop. What is the procedure to clean up these unnecessary instances and tasks and stop the looping?

Cause

IBM Business Process Manager is a development platform and has many of the same programming structures and features that are found in traditional programming, such as looping, recursion, and so on. Looping on a service or business process definition is possible. As with any looping event, an exit condition must exist. Sometimes during development or production runtime, an infinite loop can occur.
IBM Business Process Manager has a component called the Event Manager. The Event Manager moves tokens in the business process definition engine and the service engine. The Event Manager continues to process a looping event until the event manager is stopped or the loop stops.
