       Stop mode          ===>          (Quiesce or Force, default is quiesce)      
     )                                                                              
     Note: After using FORCE mode, exit from DB2 Admin without issuing any further  
     SQL statements.

    Db2 Admin Tool accomplishes this task by issuing the Db2 command STOP DB2.
