use a script {ofbizhome}/rc.ofbiz template. There are instruction in the
file. you would customize one for each server instance renaming it.
this lets you shut down each server individually. Then write a master
script that calls all the other ones you have.
This is a good place to look for information
http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBADMIN/OFBiz+Documentation+Index

there use to be a document on this in wiki but i can not find it.
