Hi:

Turns out Michael Davidsaver has a solution...

In EPICS 7.0.2.2, the softIocPVA includes an '-x' option that adds an exit and BaseVersion record to the IOC

softIocPVA -x blah selfdestruct.cmd

with this in selfdestruct.cmd will exit the IOC after 5 seconds:

dbLoadRecords("tick.db")
iocInit()
epicsThreadSleep(5)
dbpf "blah:exit" 0
  
-Kay
