Using the Shutdown dialog

Note: By default, you can use this facility only if you have a security authorization level of 9.

To specify the shutdown method

Use the following radio buttons in the Shutdown dialog:

Force

All sessions are terminated immediately. This is the default.

End

All applications are 'blocked' against further logons, ENDSCRIPTS are run on all sessions immediately, and when all have completed, the system is shutdown.

To proceed with the shutdown

Left-click the OK button. The Shutdown dialog will close, and then:

To cancel the operation

Left-click the Cancel button. The Shutdown dialog will close.
