Hi,

Have you tried sending a shutdown commnad using the servicemix-client?

From:

http://servicemix.apache.org/kernel/42-remote-console.html

Sending direct commands from the client

The client jar does not yet support passing command line arguments to the remote ServiceMix Kernel.

In order to do so, you can create a text file containing the commands and use the system console to redirect this file to the input stream:

echo osgi/shutdown > command.txt

java -jar lib/servicemix-client.jar < command.txt

Let us know if this works for you, also what version of the ESB are you using?

Regards,

Seán.
