Shutting down a Coherence node via JMX?

Question

I retrieved a Coherence node using "Coherence:type=Node,nodeId=<whatever>", and then invoke the shutdown method (see attachment). The node seems to shutdown fine (I don't see it anymore in the Agent View), but after a few seconds, it came back (refreshing the Agent View and I see it again). Sometimes it comes back with a different nodeId.
I'm confused as to what the shutdown() method is doing.
Is there anything equivalent to calling Cluster.shutdown() for a particular node? Thanks.<br><br> <b> Attachment: </b><br>CoherenceJMX.JPG <br> (*To use this attachment you will need to rename 313.bin to CoherenceJMX.JPG after the download is complete.)

Thanks Dimitri, I actually didn't see your note until now. I took a different approach and created a rather trivial extension of DefaultCacheServer:
public class PCSDefaultCacheServer extends DefaultCacheServer {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Registering Custom Management Extensions...");
Registry registry = CacheFactory.ensureCluster().getManagement();
String name = registry.ensureGlobalName("type=Node,name=CustomManagement");
CoherenceCustomManagementMBean bean = new CoherenceCustomManagement();
registry.register(name, bean);
System.out.println("Done.");
DefaultCacheServer.main(args);
The CoherenceCustomManagement MBean registered above exposes two methods:
* shutdown() - which simply shutdown all Coherence services
* stop() - which is the above + System.exit to terminate the JVM
Regardless, your alternative is very helpful, thank you!
