Hi folks,

The sentence "If you are an HACMP™ user, you must use the ha_db2stop
command to stop DB2 instead of the db2stop command. If you use the
db2stop command instead of the ha_db2stop command, you will trigger a
failure event.". If I also do HADR with HACMP, should I also use the
ha_db2stop command, or just db2stop command?

Thanks in advance,

Laurence

It's not clear to me now involving HADR would change anything.
Use ha_db2stop to stop DB2 without triggering a failure response by
HACMP.
Since HADR is part of DB2, the above applies if HADR is in the
picture.

Note that HADR does not have any built in / automatic failover
mechanism, so stopping DB2 will not cause HADR to take such an action,
though it might cause HACMP to take such an action. If you have HADR
set up and HACMP for monitoring, then your HACMP monitoring and
response should take HADR into account.
