In our VAX-cluster (running VMS V4.3) we have installed DECnet and
VAX-PSI (V3.2). Sometimes we want to shut down just the network software
and not the whole system. According to the manuals, the command for
shutting down the DECnet is
         NCP> SET EXECUTOR STATE SHUT

This works fine: EVL, REMACP, NETACP etc. are terminated, *BUT* the PSIACP
does not terminate. Using @STARTNET to start the network again creates a
bunch of errors, because PSIACP is already active.

The big question is: How to stop the running PSIACP. I have tried STOP/ID=...
But this is not a solution, because it crashes the system.

Any comments are welcome.
