To forcefully terminate a cluster node that is in any state where it can respond to management operations, use the following rhino-console command or related MBean operation.

Console command: kill

Command

 
kill -nodes node1,node2,...
  Description
    Forcefully terminate the specified nodes (forces them to become non-primary)

Example

To forcefully terminate nodes 102 and 103:

$ ./rhino-console kill -nodes 102,103
Terminating node(s) [102,103]
Termination successful

MBean operation: kill

MBean

SLEE Management

Rhino operation

 
public void kill(int[] nodeIDs)
  throws NullPointerException, InvalidArgumentException,
    ManagementException;

Rhino’s kill operation immediately and forcefully terminates specified nodes. It requires an argument to select which nodes to terminate (by specifying node IDs).
Caution
Application state may be lost

Killing a node is not recommended — forcibly terminated nodes lose all non-replicated application state.
