Shutdown and SOL_TCP:
<?php
$a
= socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, SOL_TCP);
socket_shutdown($a, 2)
?>
PHP Warning:  socket_shutdown(): unable to shutdown socket [107]: Transport endpoint is not connected

Shutdown and SOL_UDP:
<?php
$a
= socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, SOL_UDP);
socket_shutdown($a, 2)
?>
PHP Warning:  socket_shutdown(): unable to shutdown socket [107]: Transport endpoint is not connected

Conclusion: if you are not actually connected, shutdown will fails with socket_error = 107, Transport endpoint is not connected. This is true for both TPC and UDP connection (which is suprising, UDP being a connectionless protocol). This is true no matter the value set for the how parameter.

That is not a good example of a graceful shutdown. One should close the sending side of the socket and continue to read until the remote end closes its sending connection.

Closing socket graceful
<?php
  socket_shutdown
($resHandle, 1);//remote host yet can read
 
usleep(500);//wait remote host
 
socket_shutdown($resHandle, 0);//close reading
 
socket_close($resHandle);//finaly we can free resource
?>

Sockets should be first shutdown and then closed.
<?php
// Sample: Closing sockets gracefully
socket_shutdown($sock, 2);
socket_close($sock);
?>
