In a client/server program, how do u shutdown the server gracefully based on the client's input?

Answer 1

I hope not based on the client's input from SQL commands, because it would be very danger. But, these are the sql server clients applications with a direct access into SQL server (when you know admin right password), they can do it.

Answer 2

Hi Petr, no its all python. The first part of program, client obtains date and time from the server. Then the server can be shutdown gracefully, based on user's input when to shutdown.
