Use STOP PROCESSORs at the server console prompt to stop one or more secondary processors in a multiprocessor computer.
NOTE:Because Processor 0, the boot processor, cannot be taken offline while the server is running, STOP PROCESSORS affects only secondary processors.

If you run STOP PROCESSORS without specifying the identifying number or numbers of the processors, all secondary processors will be stopped.
