Tips for Shutdown Files

HP recommends that you specify “N” for the read access portion of the file security attribute (RWEP) for your shutdown files to allow the files to be read by any user on the network. For example, you might secure these files “NCCC.”

The sequence in which you invoke shutdown files can be important. Some processes require other processes to be stopped before they can be stopped. Be sure to indicate the order in which shutdown files are to be run.

Shutdown File Examples

You can implement the system shutdown sequence with a collection of shutdown files, each with a specific purpose. HP recommends that you invoke the shutdown files in this order:

1.Shutdown files for the applications

2.Shutdown files for the communications lines

3.Shutdown files for the subsystems

4.Shutdown files for the system software

5.Shutdown file for the system
