This topic shows you how to use the mqsistop command onWindows, Linux, and UNIX systems.
All of the names are case sensitive on Linux and UNIX systems.
Do not use the mqsistop command on a DatabaseInstanceMgr unless you are using the Derby database.
Specify this flag only if the WebSphere Message Broker component is the last (or only) WebSphere Message Broker component active on this queue manager. The mqsistop command initiates a controlled shutdown of the queue manager, and informs other users of the queue manager that it is closing.
Stop other WebSphere Message Broker components that use this queue manager before you issue the mqsistop command with this option; alternatively stop them afterwards or restart the queue manager.
If you use this option, be aware that any listeners associated with this queue manager are not stopped with the queue manager. Stop these manually after issuing the mqsistop command.
Only specify this flag if you have already tried, and failed, to stop the broker in a controlled fashion using the mqsistop command without the -i flag.
On Windows platforms,
the user ID used to start the mqsistop command
must belong to the Administrators group.
