Shutdown is easy because Tomcat has a listener waiting to take action.

Starting Tomcat remotely is difficult simply because there is nothing
"listening" for the start up.

Depending on the platform, you can surround your Tomcat startup with a
script that simply restarts Tomcat, meaning when Tomcat exits it the script
immediate restarts.

#!/bin/sh
while [ 1 ]
do
    cd $CATALINA_HOME/bin
    ./catalina.sh run
done

Then whenever you shutdown Tomcat it will restart itself. Mind you, these
scripts can be hard to stop sometimes....

You can also use Dan Bernstiens SVC framework in his daemontools package to
do the same thing (I wrote that up here on the list a few months ago).

Finally, of course, you can always write your own listener in whatever
language (Java, Perl, etc) to monitor Tomcat in some custom way.
