Generic multi instance startup script

Currently working on creating a generic multi instance start up script for TC server  (tomcat).
Features should include:
1- startall
2- stopall
3- start a set of TCs serving same part of the business
4- stop a set of TCs serving same part of the business
5- start 1 instance
6- stop 1 instance
7- print status of all TC instances

Once done will post the script here.
The script used a config file, will post it also :)
