****************************************************************
When a user stops an application server via any of the
WebSphere client programs, WebSphere reports that the
application is stopped but looking at the process table
of the system (for example, "ps -ef"), the process remains
active.
Problem conclusion
The code was modified so that the process is terminated with
SIGKILL.
