Use Force Access (-F) with the PROSHUT Command to invoke an emergency shutdown of a shared-memory database.

NOTE: The PROMON and PROUTIL utilities also use a -F parameter. However, the results are not the same. In addition, using -F with PROUTIL may compromise the integrity of the database. For more information, see the Progress Database Administration Guide and Reference.
