IMS Operation Hint

In the *IMS best practices policy, relationships have been set up, for example, from monitor resources to the IMS application group, to make sure that the monitor resources can rely on all required IMS functions.

Be aware that the shutdown of the IMS control region may not be performed because of these defined resource dependencies. You should therefore address the shutdown request to the IMS application group instead of the IMS control region to avoid hanging shutdown requests.
