Is there any other way then kill to get svnserve -d to stop

[Marc-Andre Landry <xe...@videotron.ca>]

Hi,
newbie to Linux, I encounter different tool to administer my 
server/workstation. I have different deamon running and also the 
svnserve with -d and -r set. Here my question as clear as I can : is 
there a tool that would interact (someway somehow) with the svn deamon 
to start,pause/resume & stop the deamon. If there is more than one 
deamon running the listening port could serve as a identifiant as they 
most already by unique.
Any workaround would do? I already began to use kill -9 SVNSERVE_PID but 
I fear to interfere with the closing sequance. Am I right to have such fear?

Hi Marc-Andre,

I don't have alot of experience in server admin but I notice noone has 
replied to this important topic.  I would think you'd want to do the 
following before shutting down your svnserve:

* make sure noone is accessing repository
* backup your repository (why not!   and just in case)
* then shut down

Oh, I meant to add that 'kill -9' is pretty brutal and you'd want to 
start with 'kill -3' (QUIT).

Cheers,

Brooke

In a world without walls or fences,
what's the need for Gates and Windows?
