After looking through the SCO man pages I don't see a poweroff command. The only mention of 'power' in the init man page is as follows:

Quote:
If init receives a power failure signal (SIGPWR), it scans /etc/inittab for special entries of the type powerfail or powerwait. These entries are invoked (if the run-level permits this) before any further processing takes place. In this way init can perform various cleanup and recording functions during the powerdown of the operating system.
The 'poweroff' command was mention in a few articles on aplawrence.com (example ). Although I admit it's almost impossible to read with the new set up the site has. They may not even be writing about SCO in this article, which I must apoligize for.

There is a haltsys and uadmin command which normally should not be used - but the uadmin man page shows an option for pwrnap - A UPS or the BIOS-APM has detected a power outage; do not reboot until power returns. If possible, the machine is turned off.

Note, the uadmin man page states "if possible, the machine is turned off" - it all comes back to the hardware.
