continues to run, consuming considerable resources.  The process
must be killed manually.

* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
When Tivoli Performance Viewer is not connected to the
application server it can replay log files. If the tool fails
to connect to the applications server, it will go to log replay
mode.
In this scenario, if the tool is closed it goes into a loop
mode and doesn't shut down properly.
Problem conclusion
Added code to check if PmiClient is not null before calling
close on PmiClient.
The pmiclient.close will not be called when the tool is not
connected to the appserver.
