Stopping an execution group using the WebSphere Message Broker Toolkit or WebSphere Message Broker Explorer
You can stop all the message flows in an execution group by using the WebSphere® Message Broker Toolkit or WebSphere Message Broker Explorer.
If resources are deployed to your execution group, the started or stopped state of the message flows is remembered when you stop the execution group. You can use the menu to start or stop all message flows before the execution group has been stopped.
If you prefer, you can stop execution groups by using the mqsistopmsgflow command.
The broker processes all inflight messages and associated transactions for each message flow before stopping it. See Message flow transactions for information on how outstanding units of work are handled in this situation.
