1. Login to Linux running on the system you want to shut down. 2. Issue the shutdown -r time command with the required time argument to specify when the shutdown is to occur. You can specify time in the format hh:mm, in which hh is the hour (one or two digits) and mm is the minute of the hour (two digits); or in the format +m, in which m is the number of minutes delay until shutdown; or specify now to immediately shut down. Performing a Reboot for Reconfig You can perform a reboot for reconfig by using the following procedures: • "Reboot for Reconfig from HP-UX (/sbin/shutdown -R command)" (page 139) • "Reboot for Reconfig from OpenVMS" (page 139) • "Reboot for Reconfig from Windows (shutdown /r command)" (page 140) • "Reboot for Reconfig from Linux (shutdown -r time command)" (page 140) During a reboot for reconfig of an nPartition, the command that you issue performs the following tasks: 1. Shuts down the operating system and resets all cells that are assigned to the nPartition, including any inactive cells. 2. Reconfigures the nPartition if necessary (if there is a pending change to the Stable Complex Configuration Data, it occurs during the reboot for reconfig). 3. Boots all cells in the nPartition. Any cells with a "n" use-on-next-boot value remain inactive at BIB, and all other cells can rendezvous to form the nPartition. Perform a reboot for reconfig of an nPartition whenever you add cells or remove active cells from the nPartition, and whenever you need to allow an inactive cell to join the nPartition (such as after changing a cell use-on-next-boot value from "n" to "y"). Procedure 5-34 Reboot for Reconfig from HP-UX (/sbin/shutdown -R command) From the HP-UX command line use the shutdown -R command to perform a reboot for reconfig for an nPartition. 1. Login to HP-UX running on the nPartition where you want to perform the reboot for reconfig. 2. Issue the shutdown -R command to perform a reboot for reconfig of the nPartition. The shutdown -R command shuts down HP-UX, reboot all cells assigned to the nPartition, performs any nPartition reconfigurations, and boot all cells that have "y" use-on-next-boot values. Procedure 5-35 Reboot for Reconfig from OpenVMS To perform a reboot for reconfig of the local nPartition from the HP OpenVMS command line, issue the @SYS$SYSTEM:SHUTDOWN command to shut down OpenVMS, then enter Yes at the "Should an automatic system reboot be performed" prompt. 1. Log in to HP OpenVMS running on the system that you want to shut down. You should log in to the MP for the server and use the Console menu to access the system console. Accessing the console through the MP enables you to maintain console access to the system after HP OpenVMS has shut down. Performing a Reboot for Reconfig 139

Performing a Reboot for Reconfig
You can perform a reboot for reconfig by using the following procedures:
•
“Reboot for Reconfig from HP-UX (/sbin/shutdown -R command)” (page 139)
•
“Reboot for Reconfig from OpenVMS” (page 139)
•
“Reboot for Reconfig from Windows (shutdown /r command)” (page 140)
•
“Reboot for Reconfig from Linux (shutdown -r time command)” (page 140)
During a reboot for reconfig of an nPartition, the command that you issue performs the following
tasks:
1.
Shuts down the operating system and resets all cells that are assigned to the nPartition,
including any inactive cells.
2.
Reconfigures the nPartition if necessary (if there is a pending change to the Stable Complex
Configuration Data, it occurs during the reboot for reconfig).
3.
Boots all cells in the nPartition. Any cells with a "n" use-on-next-boot value remain inactive
at BIB, and all other cells can rendezvous to form the nPartition.
Perform a reboot for reconfig of an nPartition whenever you add cells or remove active cells
from the nPartition, and whenever you need to allow an inactive cell to join the nPartition (such
as after changing a cell use-on-next-boot value from "n" to "y").
Procedure 5-34 Reboot for Reconfig from HP-UX (/sbin/shutdown -R command)
From the HP-UX command line use the
shutdown -R
command to perform a reboot for reconfig
for an nPartition.
1.
Login to HP-UX running on the nPartition where you want to perform the reboot for reconfig.
2.
Issue the
shutdown -R
command to perform a reboot for reconfig of the nPartition.
The
shutdown -R
command shuts down HP-UX, reboot all cells assigned to the nPartition,
performs any nPartition reconfigurations, and boot all cells that have "y" use-on-next-boot
values.
Procedure 5-35 Reboot for Reconfig from OpenVMS
To perform a reboot for reconfig of the local nPartition from the HP OpenVMS command line,
issue the
@SYS$SYSTEM:SHUTDOWN
command to shut down OpenVMS, then enter
Yes
at the
"Should an automatic system reboot be performed" prompt.
1.
Log in to HP OpenVMS running on the system that you want to shut down.
You should log in to the MP for the server and use the Console menu to access the system
console. Accessing the console through the MP enables you to maintain console access to
the system after HP OpenVMS has shut down.
