PROSHUT provides an interface to shut down an OpenEdge database server, DataServer broker, and individual OpenEdge user processes. Best practices suggest that before you shut down the server, have all application users quit their OpenEdge sessions. If necessary, you can disconnect users by using the PROSHUT command's Disconnect a User or Unconditional Shutdown parameters.
