How to stop java process on Linux server ?

We are using x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Linux server and it's clusterd environment. Could you please help me, how can we stop the java process on clustered servers?

Thanks in advance.

System.exit()

You're welcome

Thanks for your response...

But my problem is to kill the java process on Linux server at clustered environment. I have tryed with kill -3, -15, -9. These kill commands can use on normal Linux server. But i need to kill the java process at clustered environment

previously we had an application that already had JMS hooked in, so we added the ability to send a shutdown message that all servers would receive.

Better solution? (sorry about the previous one, your requirements were a bit vague)
