When a WebSphere Liberty server is started on Linux, is its pid stored anywhere on the filesystem, in a .pid file or similar? I'm developing an automated script that under some scenarios, when the server won't cleanly stop, needs to force-kill it.

Hi on Linux server there is .pid directory which will have PID

For example :

/opt/IBM/WebSphere/Liberty/usr/servers # cd .pid

/opt/IBM/WebSphere/Liberty/usr/servers/.pid # ls -lp

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6 Apr  7 11:05 defaultServer.pid

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6 Apr  7 11:10 test1.pid

/opt/IBM/WebSphere/Liberty/usr/servers/.pid # cat defaultServer.pid

14088

/opt/IBM/WebSphere/Liberty/usr/servers/.pid #

NOTE : On windows there is no PID file/directory created.

VS, opinions are my own and not those of my employer
