Stopping a system or logical partition
Learn how to stop a system or logical partition as a part of a system upgrade or service action.
Attention: Using either the power-on button on
the control panel or entering commands at the Hardware Management Console (HMC) to stop the system
can cause unpredictable results in the data files. Also, the next
time you start the system, it might take longer if all applications
are not ended before stopping the system.
To stop the system or logical partition, select the appropriate procedure.
