exitNode - shutdown each instrument service and exit the SIAM application

exitNode nodeHost

The exitNode utility is a kinder gentler method of exiting the SIAM application. The utility calls the shutdown method of all running services. Once all of the services have been shutdown the SIAM application exits. Using exitNode insures that any instruments with specific shutdown requirements are handled correctly. Example,

$ exitNode sidearm

or

$ exitNode localhost

The following environment variables must be set:

• JAVA_HOME - location of Java installation, e.g. /j9 or /opt/java/jdk1.3.1
• JAVA - name of the JVM. E.g. on a Sidearm, JAVA should be set to j9. On a workstation with Sun's Java installed, JAVA could be set to java.
• SIAM_HOME - top of the SIAM directory tree
• SIAM_CLASSPATH - on a Sidearm, SIAM_CLASSPATH should be set to SIAM_CLASSPATH=$JAVA_HOME/lib/jclMax/classes.zip:$JAVA_HOME/lib/prsnlmot.jar:$JAVA_HOME/lib/RXTXcomm.jar:$SIAM_HOME/classes:$SIAM_HOME/jars/log4j-1.2.8.jar.  On X86 system, SIAM_CLASSPATH should be set to $SIAM_HOME/classes;$SIAM_HOME/jars/RXTXcomm.jar;$SIAM_HOME/jars/log4j-1.2.8.jar
