3. Issue the shutdown command and the appropriate options to shut down the Windows Server 2003 on the system. You have the following options when shutting down Windows: • To shut down Windows and reboot: shutdown /r or select the Start -> Shut Down action and choose Restart from the pull-down menu. • To shut down Windows and not reboot (either power down server hardware or put an nPartition into a shutdown for reconfig state): shutdown /s or select the Start -> Shut Down action and choose Shut down from the pull-down menu. • To abort a shutdown (stop a shutdown that has been initiated): shutdown /a For example: shutdown /r /t 60 /c "Shut down in one minute." This command initiates a Windows system shutdown-and-reboot after a timeout period of 60 seconds. The /c option specifies a message that is broadcast to any other users of the system. Shutting Down Linux Use the shutdown command to shut down the Red Hat Linux or the SuSE Linux Enterprise Server operating system. The Red Hat Linux and SuSE Linux Enterprise Server shutdown command includes the following options: -h Halt after shutdown. On nPartition-capable HP Integrity servers, this will either power down server hardware or put the nPartition into a shutdown for reconfig state. Use the PE command at the management processor Command menu to manually power on or power off server hardware, as needed. -r Reboot after shutdown. -c Cancel an already running shutdown. time When to shut down. (Required.) time can be specified in any of the following ways: • Absolute 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). • Number of minutes to wait in the format +m, in which m is the number of minutes. • now to immediately shut down; this is equivalent to using +0 to wait zero minutes. Refer to the shutdown(8) Linux manpage for details. Also refer to the Linux mapage for the poweroff command. NOTE: On HP rx7620 servers and rx8620 servers you can configure the nPartition behavior when an OS is shutdown and halted (shutdown -h or poweroff). The two options are to have hardware power off when the OS is halted, or to have the nPartition be made inactive (all cells are in a boot-is-blocked state). The normal behavior for Red Hat Linux or SuSE Linux Enterprise Server shutdown and halt is for the nPartition be made inactive. For details see "ACPI "Softpowerdown" Configuration-rx7620 and rx8620 OS Shutdown Behavior" (page 194). Procedure E-13 Linux Shutdown From the command line for Red Hat Linux or SuSE Linux Enterprise Server, issue the shutdown command to shut down the operating system. 1.

You have the following options when shutting down Windows:
•
To shut down Windows and reboot:
shutdown /r
or select the
Start
—
> Shut Down
action and choose
Restart
from the pull-down menu.
•
To shut down Windows and not reboot (either power down server hardware or put an
nPartition into a shutdown for reconfig state):
shutdown /s
or select the
Start
—
>
Shut Down
action and choose
Shut down
from the pull-down menu.
•
To abort a shutdown (stop a shutdown that has been initiated):
shutdown /a
For example:
shutdown /r /t 60 /c "Shut down in one minute."
This command initiates a Windows system shutdown-and-reboot after a timeout period of
60 seconds. The
/c
option specifies a message that is broadcast to any other users of the
system.
Shutting Down Linux
Use the
shutdown
command to shut down the Red Hat Linux or the SuSE Linux Enterprise
Server operating system.
The Red Hat Linux and SuSE Linux Enterprise Server
shutdown
command includes the following
options:
-h
Halt after shutdown.
On nPartition-capable HP Integrity servers, this will either power down server hardware
or put the nPartition into a shutdown for reconfig state.
Use the
PE
command at the management processor Command menu to manually power
on or power off server hardware, as needed.
-r
Reboot after shutdown.
-c
Cancel an already running shutdown.
time
When to shut down. (Required.)
time
can be specified in any of the following ways:
•

poweroff
command.
NOTE:
On HP rx7620 servers and rx8620 servers you can configure the nPartition behavior
when an OS is shutdown and halted (
shutdown -h
or
poweroff
). The two options are to have
hardware power off when the OS is halted, or to have the nPartition be made inactive (all cells

The normal behavior for Red Hat Linux or SuSE Linux Enterprise Server shutdown and halt is
