Name
globus-stop-container — Stops standalone container
Synopsis
globus-stop-container
Tool description
Stops a standalone container. By default this command will attempt to stop a container running on localhost:8443 and perform a soft shutdown.
The globus-stop-container command invokes a ShutdownService running in the container. By default that service is configured to perform self authorization and therefore the globus-stop-container must be executed with the same credentials as the container it is running with. Alternatively, the service can be configured with a gridmap file to allow a subset of users (with their own credentials) to invoke the service (please see the service security deployment descriptor for details).

| -e, --eprFile <file> | Specifies an XML file that contains the WS-Addressing endpoint reference. |
| -s, --service <url> | Specifies the service URL. |
| -k, --key <name value> | Specifies the resource key. The name is the QName of the resource key in the string form: {namespaceURI}localPart, while the value is the simple value of the key. For complex keys, use the --eprFile option. Example: -k "{http://www.globus.org}MyKey" 123 |
| -f, --descriptor <file> | Specifies a client security descriptor. Overrides all other security settings. |
| -a, --anonymous | Enables anonymous authentication. Only supported with transport security or the GSI Secure Conversation authentication mechanism. |
| -g, --delegation <mode> | Enables delegation. mode can be either 'limited' or 'full'. Only supported with the GSI Secure Conversation authentication mechanism. |
| -l, --contextLifetime <value> | Sets the lifetime of the client security context. value is in milliseconds. Only supported with the GSI Secure Conversation authentication mechanism. |
| -m, --securityMech <type> | Specifies the authentication mechanism. type can be 'msg' for GSI Secure Message, or 'conv' for GSI Secure Conversation. |
| -c, --serverCertificate <file> | Specifies the server's certificate file used for encryption. Only needed for the GSI Secure Message authentication mechanism. |
| -p, --protection <type> | Specifies the protection level. type can be 'sig' for signature or 'enc' for encryption. |
| -x, --proxyFilename <value> | Sets the proxy file to use as client credential. |
| -z, --authorization <type> | Specifies authorization type. type can be 'self', 'host', 'none', or a string specifying the expected identity of the remote party. |

| 'soft' | This option lets the threads die naturally. |
| 'hard' | This option forces an immediate JVM shutdown. |
