title: Tomcat graceful shutdown
body: <p>I am using Tomcat 8.x.x and  starting the tomcat using startup.sh. I verified that tomcat is up and running using JPS command. I am stopping the Tomcat using <strong>catalina.sh stop 100</strong>. As per catalina shell scripts says it will wait for 100 seconds to terminate the tomcat process. But tomcat process terminated immediately, verified by JPS command.</p>
  
  <p>Why Graceful shutdown is not working ?</p>
  
  <p>How to achieve the Graceful shutdown in Tomcat ?</p>
