HYLAFAX-SHUTDOWN(5F)HYLAFAX-SHUTDOWN(5F)NAME
etc/shutdown - server shutdown control file
DESCRIPTION
If the file etc/shutdown is present it describes when a HylaFAX server is to be shutdown and may contain a descriptive message to return to
clients explaining the reason for the shutdown. This file is used by the hfaxd(8C) program.
The file has the following format:
<year> <month> <day> <hour> <minute> <deny> <disconnect>
<shutdown message text>
The first line defines the date and time the server should be shutdown and the time preceding at which unprivileged clients should be
denied service or disconnected; these fields are described in more detail below. Any lines that follow the first are taken as the text of
a message to return to clients when notifying them of a scheduled shutdown or when denying them service.
<year> The decimal year; e.g. 1996.
<month> The decimal month; e.g. 10 for October.
<day> The decimal day of the month in the range [1..31].
<hour> The decimal hour since midnight; in the range [0..23].
<minute> The decimal minute after the hour; in the range [0..59].
<deny> The time prior to the shutdown time at which to deny service to unprivileged clients. This value is specified as decimal number
in the form HHMM; e.g. 130 for 1 hour and 30 minutes.
<disconnect>
Time time prior to the shutdown time at which to disconnect unprivileged clients that are logged in to the server. This value is
specified as a decimal number in the form HHMM.
NOTES
This file is typically created using the ``SHUT'' command supported by hfaxd(8C).

SHUTDOWN(8) shutdown SHUTDOWN(8)NAME
shutdown - Halt, power-off or reboot the machine
SYNOPSIS
shutdown [OPTIONS...] [TIME] [WALL...]
DESCRIPTION
shutdown may be used to halt, power-off or reboot the machine.
The first argument may be a time string (which is usually "now"). Optionally, this may be followed by a wall message to be sent to all
logged-in users before going down.
The time string may either be in the format "hh:mm" for hour/minutes specifying the time to execute the shutdown at, specified in 24h clock
format. Alternatively it may be in the syntax "+m" referring to the specified number of minutes m from now. "now" is an alias for "+0",
i.e. for triggering an immediate shutdown. If no time argument is specified, "+1" is implied.
Note that to specify a wall message you must specify a time argument, too.
If the time argument is used, 5 minutes before the system goes down the /run/nologin file is created to ensure that further logins shall
not be allowed.
OPTIONS
The following options are understood:
--help
Prints a short help text and exits.
-H, --halt
Halt the machine.
-P, --poweroff
Power-off the machine (the default).
-r, --reboot
Reboot the machine.
-h
Equivalent to --poweroff, unless --halt is specified.
-k
Do not halt, power-off, reboot, just write wall message.
--no-wall
Do not send wall message before halt, power-off, reboot.
-c
Cancel a pending shutdown. This may be used cancel the effect of an invocation of shutdown with a time argument that is not "+0" or
"now".
EXIT STATUS
On success, 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise.
