Shutting down immediately

If the command is successful, a message is displayed, and written to the system log.

To perform an immediate shutdown, issue the following MVS™ system command:

/F  JOB_NAME,APPL=SHUTDOWN|SHUT,IMMEDIATE|IMM

where JOB_NAME is the name of the CICS® Transaction Gateway job that you want to send the command to. You can use either of the following pairs of commands:

SHUTDOWN or SHUT
IMMEDIATE or IMM

If the command is misspelled, the command is rejected, and a message is issued.
