Deliverables: [SYS$LDR]TCPIP$TNDRIVER.EXE Reference: QXCM1001397592 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Corrections for HP TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS V5.7 Shutdown Procedures --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2.1 The command procedure to shut down a service might not terminate all target processes. 24-FEB-2015 Integrity servers and Alpha Problem: The shutdown command procedure provided for each service, might not stop all the processes related to that service. For example, for NFS Service, the procedure TCPIP$NFS_SHUTDOWN.COM sometimes doesn't terminate the TCPIP$MOUNTD process, thus causing the MOUNT service to fail during next restart. Similarly, the FTP shutdown procedure TCPIP$FTP_SHUTDOWN.COM may not stop the FTP child processes for active sessions. Deliverables: [SYSMGR]TCPIP$_SHUTDOWN.COM Reference: PTR 75-117-368
