Stopping the BMC PATROL Agent on UNIX

You can create a script to automatically stop the agent during a normal shutdown procedure. However, you do not want to perform an absolute stop (kill -9) because it forces the agent to quit before it can properly close its open files.

Note

The two types of shutdown scripts in the stopping tasks are offered as examples. They are not necessarily robust or complete solutions for every environment.
