    Hi, After running the appropriate shutdown sequence we seem to need to use and repeat the use of a kill command to shut down the server. It's a problem when using cron to run scripts when the hardware is shutdown and restarted. Any best practices for using a loop to check for the pid and running the kill or escalating to a kill -9 if until it is shutdown? Thanks, Brad

    I've "always" used kill -9 and I've never run into issues with doing so.
