I will send this in 3 patches (1 simple bugfix, stop logic, multipartition)

In a multipartition environment even db2nkill N kills *all* partitions on the 
node at issue.
From our experience a successfull db2stop removes all server processes.
If a client is connected on the same machine some client background processes 
(db2bp)
may still hang around but they are not harmful and will eventually time out.

db2start is a shorcut for 'db2 db2start'.
