Posted this question in another segment by error, but here goes. Lost my notes on the location of the 5min shutdown warning when using SAM. I set my single user system to 0mins so I don't have to keep backspacing out the 5mins and changing it to 0mins.
Thanks

(Located my old notes by accident, see below if interested)

Are you talking of SAM in HP-UX?
Why would someone use sam to shutdown the system, when so easy in command line ?
I know how to in command line ...

And Using sam ->routine task->shutdown takes quite more time...

maybe in /var/sam/rt?
quite sure its in /var/sam somewhere...

Immediate System Shutdown Notes: via SAM in HP-UX (from an old HP friend)
From a terminal window (have to cd out of mounted filesystems first to "/" directory) by entering
'shutdown -hy 0' (or /usr/sbin/shutdown -hy 0 if /usr/sbin not in path but should be for root) as this is the quickest way for me. If you want to change Sam's user interface for a default then the only way that I have discovered to do it is to edit the rt_restart.ui --- they have the value hard-coded into the the file. Not really recommended as this was not meant to be user configurable, but it's your system.
So if you wish you can edit
/usr/sam/lib/C/rt_restart.ui
and go down towards the end of the file inside the block labeled
text_edit rt_restart_te_time
and change the line that reads
default "5"
to
default "0"
A third option would be to bring up Sam
Click on Actions on the top toolbar -> Add Custom Application
Then when the popup comes up
Label: add something you like like "Immediate Shutdown"
Command: /usr/sbin/shutdown -hy 0
leave the rest as is and click OK.
Now you should have an icon that you can click on to execute the shutdown -- the
only gotcha with this is that you'll have to be in the "/" directory when you start
SAM for it to work.

Ah...So it wasnt something standard (and so unsupported ...)

Thanks for sharing!


All the best

If you dont mind I will move the thread to HP-UX forum where it will be more helpfull...

Okay by me.
That tidbit of info was "off the record" from an HP tech.
Enjoy!
