Do the "child-JVMs" stop when 21115 shuts down? Do the child-JVMs terminate on "normal" signals like -SIGTERM? I would try to log the exact time, when these additional JVM are being started and compare these with things that were happening on the "parent"-Tomcat - maybe you find a application dependency that way. Just an idea: Maybe the parent-JVM gets a signal to restart itself that isn't handled correct?
