     STOP  [process-name]

   The STOP command performs entirely different functions when used
   with certain qualifiers as follows:

   STOP Qualifier(s)      Function

   /CPU                   Stops the specified secondary processor
                          or processors (and any associated vector
                          processors) in an OpenVMS multiprocessing
                          system.

   /NETWORK               Stops the specified network service on the
                          local node.

   /QUEUE                 Causes the specified execution queue to
                          pause.

   /QUEUE/ABORT           Aborts a job that is printing or
                          processing on an output queue, deletes
                          it from the queue, and begins processing
                          the first pending job in the queue.

   /QUEUE/ENTRY           Aborts one or more jobs that are executing
                          on a batch queue or printing on an output
                          queue, deletes them from the queue, and
                          begins processing the first pending job in
                          the queue.

   /QUEUE/MANAGER/CLUSTER Stops the queue manager throughout the
                          OpenVMS Cluster.

   /QUEUE/NEXT            Stops the specified queue after all
                          executing jobs have completed processing.

   /QUEUE/REQUEUE         Stops the current jobs on the specified
                          queue and requeues them for later
                          processing.

   /QUEUE/RESET           Abruptly stops the queue and returns
                          control to the system.

   /QUEUES/ON_NODE        Stops all queues on the specified node.

   /ZONE                  Removes a zone from the VAXft series
                          computers.
