System Management Tasks
•
Reconfigure objects to correct problems and improve performance.
6. Stop your PATHMON environment.
Use the SHUTDOWN2 command to stop your system in an orderly way so you can
restart easily later. (Although the SHUTDOWN command is supported for
backward compatibility, the SHUTDOWN2 command is recommended.)
The SHUTDOWN2 command also provides options for faster shutdown in
emergencies.
The tasks in Figure 1-7 on page 1-20 shows only PATHMON-controlled objects—
described in detail throughout the remaining sections of this manual. The tasks not
specific to Pathway/iTS —such as starting the PATHMON environment and managing
other objects—are described in detail in the TS/MP System Management Manual.
For complete information about the PATHCOM commands that operate on
Pathway/iTS objects, including syntax, usage rules, and error messages, see
Section 7, Overview of PATHCOM, through Section 12, Tell Message Commands. For
a summary of these commands, see Appendix A, Syntax Summary. For complete
information about the PATHCOM commands that operate on TS/MP objects, see the
TS/MP System Management Manual.
