SHUTDOWN2 Command
returned. If the timeout occurs and shutdown has not completed, the
PATHCOM prompt returns without affecting the execution of the shutdown
process.
Using the Break Key During Shutdown
You can use the Break key during shutdown to return the PATHCOM prompt without
affecting the execution of the shutdown process. Returning the PATHCOM prompt
enables you to investigate the state of the system (for example, issue a STATUS
PATHWAY command), examine or stop any object, or escalate the shutdown process.
Escalating the Shutdown Process
Once you have issued a SHUTDOWN2 command with MODE ORDERLY or MODE
ABORT, you can escalate the shutdown process by pressing the Break key and
entering a more forceful SHUTDOWN2 option.
