Stopping a node

Use scripting to stop a node agent.

Before starting this task, wsadmin.sh must be running. See the topic about starting the wsadmin scripting client article for more information.

Stopping the node agent on a remote machine process is an asynchronous action where the stop is initiated, and then control returns to the command line. Perform the following task to stop a node:

1. Identify the node to stop and assign it to a variable:

   Jacl:

   set na [$AdminControl queryNames type=NodeAgent,node=mynode,*]

   Using Jython:

   na = AdminControl.queryNames('type=NodeAgent,node=mynode,*')

2. Stop the node:

   Jacl:

   $AdminControl invoke $na stopNode

   Using Jython:

   AdminControl.invoke(na, 'stopNode')
