--------------------------------------------
Hi Rakesh,
Thanks for looking at this. However, this approach isn't going to work here.
The bash script execs java. That means that any bash commands after the exec
are not relevant, since the bash process is replaced by the Java process. If
you want a signal handler or an atexit handler, you need to do it from java.

> When balancer completes rebalance and exits, it does not delete its pid file.
> Starting balancer again, then "kill -0 pid" to confirm the balancer process
> is not running.
> The problem is: If another process is running as the same pid as `cat
> pidfile`, balancer fails to start with following message:
> {code}
> balancer is running as process 3443. Stop it first.
> {code}
