Script which uses “kill -9” command

i have one script which uses “kill -9” command. That prevents from getting the process core dumps. Apparently once tomcat lands in a confused state, we seem to have no other option, other than Kill -9.

is there any other way to get rid of this.

Script:

Code:
sleep 2
PID=`ps -ef | grep "^tomcat " | grep -v grep | grep Bootstrap | awk '{print $2}'`
if [ "$PID" != "" ] ; then
  echo "Killing process."
  kill $PID
  sleep 5
  PID=`ps -ef | grep "^tomcat " | grep -v grep | grep Bootstrap | awk '{print $2}'`
  if [ "$PID" != "" ] ; then
    echo "Force killing process"
    kill -9 $PID
  fi

Any idea will be highly appriciated

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
