To use stop_iq in a cron or at job, use the appropriate -stop option:
stop_iq -stop one
Setting -stop one shuts down a single server, when exactly one running server was started by the user ID that starts the cron or at job. This prevents the wrong server from being shut down if several are running.
stop_iq -stop all
Setting -stop all shuts down all servers that were started by the user ID that starts the server.
You can specify both options on the same command, for example:
stop_iq -agent -stop all
In a cron statement, you must specify the complete path name to the stop_iq executable.
