With the Jazz server itself there are stop and start scripts. Not for

the jbe though. Is kill -2 really the only option (actually that
doesn't
usually work so I have to resort to -9).

Any thoughts about providing a stop script?

Thanks,
Jeremy

Hi Jeremy,
we're doing the same here (kill)

Here's our startup /stopping script for the RTC Build engine: we're
running it on RedHat

#!/bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: Rational Team Concert Build System
# Required-Start: $network
# Required-Stop: $network
# Default-Start: 2 3 5
# Description: Rational Team Concert Build System
### END INIT INFO

JBE_LOGFILE=jbe.out

case "$1" in
'start')
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_15/
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
cd /opt/IBM/TeamConcertBuild/buildsystem/buildengine/eclipse
if
then
mv $JBE_LOGFILE $JBE_LOGFILE.old
fi
echo "Starting jbe process. stdout/stderr redirected to
$JBE_LOGFILE"
nohup ./jbe -repository https://jazzserver/jazz -engineId
buildengine3 -userId builder.jazz3 -passwordFile
/opt/IBM/TeamConcertBuild/buildsystem/buildengine/eclipse/pass.txt
-sleeptime 1 >$JBE_LOGFILE 2>&1 &
;;

'stop')
echo "Killing jbe processes:" $(ps -C jbe -o
pid=)
ps -C jbe -o pid= | xargs kill
;;

'restart')
$0 stop
sleep 5
$0 start
;;
*)
echo "Usage: $0 { start | stop | restart
}"
;;
esac
exit 0

Will the RTC Development team implement another solution for this
one?
Thanks,

There is a workitem for this (54073).
I'll "refresh" it, to get it back in the queue ...

Cheers,
Geoff

Hi all,

Here is the update from our development:
"No, we don't provide our own mechanism for stopping a build
engine. We assume users will use the OS means for doing so, e.g. the
kill command on Unix, or sending Ctrl+C to the console window running
jbe on Windows.
If they require an out-of-the-box solution for this, please ask them
to open an enhancement request."

If you are going to submit an enhancement, please make sure to tag it
with "manbeta2".
Thanks!
