bash script for shutting down jboss in linux

[klcopela]

I would like to use a bash script to modernize my bash script for shutting down my jboss applications.

the first script is:
#!/bin/bash

#################################################
## Stop script for LST - Helpdesk
## application.
#################################################

export BIND_IP=10.170.28.128
export INST_HOME=dev.lst-adminops
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jre1.5.0_14
export JBOSS_HOME=/dapp032/u01/app/jboss/jboss-4.2.3.GA

$JBOSS_HOME/bin/shutdown.sh --server=jnp://$BIND_IP:1099 -u jbadmin -p XXXXXX

What i am trying to do is add a grep and kill command to the script so which will help me automate my shutdown of jboss.

this is what i have so far: "will be added to the end of the script"

sleep 30

PID=`ps ux | grep "org.jboss.Main -c dev.lst-adminops" | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2}'`
FILE=lstAdminOps.dump

if [ -z "$PID" ] ; then echo "No PID found." ; fi

echo "Taking thread dump."
kill -3 $PID

echo "Executing jmap on PID $PID"
$JBOSS_HOME -heap:live,format=b,file=$FILE $PID


rm -R ../work
rm -R ../tmp



But i want to remove the container name dev.lst-adminops and have it grep the actual PID from the application that we are shutting down at that time. That way we can automate it better.
Please let me know what you think.

Thanks
