Hi
Me being the one who made the ridiculous suggestion of using ps, am now
enlightened and will be using jps -mlv and spreading the word...
That being said is there any opinions about the soundness of using the
Redhat/Centos startup/shutdown script for Tomcat?
No idea how it works, but presumably it was written to shutdown the
server, ergo it should be reasonable to use it as intended.
If Tomcat doesn't stop, find out why.

See others' responses for why you should have to do this. Otherwise...
i need to kill it explicitly. So I would like to know how to
identify the java process of the logged in user who started the server. so
that i can kill the process id from the shutdown.sh script itself.
You won't be using the shutdown.sh script to kill Tomcat unless you hack
it up to do that. I'd recommend against that.
What I would recommend is using the CATALINA_PID environment variable
helpfully documented in bin/catalina.sh:
# Environment Variable Prequisites
[...]
# CATALINA_PID (Optional) Path of the file which should contains
# the pid of catalina startup java process, when
# start (fork) is used
Try setting this environment variable to something like
"/var/run/tomcat.pid" and you should get a file in that location
containing the pid of the Java process started by Tomcat.
Then, you can do something like:
$ kill -9 `cat /var/run/tomcat.pid`
Forget all these ridiculous suggestions of running 'ps' and grepping the
output for all kinds of crazy strings. That may or may not work at all.
The above strategy was intended by the Tomcat developers to be used to
capture the PID of the Java process, so go ahead and use that.
