Hello;

what is a "queue server's topic"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_Message_Service
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observer_pattern

It is a mechanism by which a "message" (in my case, JSON-RPC over messaging) can be passed from either one instance to another instance (queue) or from one instance to the other instances in the deployment (topic).

What message?

Through this mechanism, the instances are able to periodically inform each other of their presence. An admin user can then opt (via a user interface) to send a message over the topic to trigger a shutdown procedure of one or more instances.

If you implemented such an arrangement, you could have your external system programatically send such a message into a topic and signal the instances to shutdown.

cheers.
