MQSeries.net :: View topic - Best practice to scriupt a queue manager stop on W2K ?

I know from past experience that the best way to reliably script a qmgr shutdown is something like:

endmqm QMGRNAME

sleep x seconds

endmqm -i QMGRNAME

sleep x seconds

endmqm -p QMGRNAME

sleep x seconds

kill qmgr process in the order specified in the Admin guide

My question is, on the windows platform we also have the "amqmdain end" command. In regard to this command:
1) Which of the above endmqm commands is it equivalent to?
2) Where should I fit it into my qmgr shutdown?
3) Is there also value in scripting a stop of the MQ Windows service, just to ensure everything has shutdown ok?

Thanks,
Matt.
