SHUTDOWN $ABEND$ The SHUTDOWN $ABEND$ command shuts down NonStop NET/MASTER MS
immediately and completely, regardless of its operating state or the functions
currently being performed. The processes stopped are the NonStop NET/MASTER
MS control process (NCP) and all other processes in the NonStop NET/MASTER MS
system. This command does not wait for users to log off from NonStop
NET/MASTER MS before the shutdown sequence begins, nor does it shut down any
NonStop NET/MASTER MS services (such as OCS, NCL, INMC, and ROC). All
activity is terminated immediately.
You cannot cancel or reverse the shutdown sequence after you enter this command
from NonStop NET/MASTER MS. Contrast this command with the FSTOP
command, which forces an immediate and complete orderly shutdown of NonStop
NET/MASTER MS; and the SHUTDOWN command, which begins an orderly
shutdown of NonStop NET/MASTER MS, and allows a shutdown to be stopped and
reversed.
SHUTDOWN $ABEND$
Note Use the SHUTDOWN $ABEND$ command only in an emergency.
