Operating Systems Solaris Reboot problem !!! urgent plse !!!!!!!!!!! Post 95761 by Perderabo on Saturday 14th of January 2006 01:58:30 PM
Old 01-14-2006
Sun has two shutdown commands. The UCB shutdown is a dangerous c program that does do some logging. The real shutdown command is shell script and I don't see any logging there.

I came from an HP-UX environment. On HP-UX, using init to shutdown is like pulling the plug. I got real used to the shutdown command. This is one of the reasons Sun admins have a rough time with HP-UX. They usually manage one shutdown via the init command... although they never do it again. This also may explain why Sun recommends using init! Smilie

On Suns, I use the shutdown command because it warns the users... including making an attempt at warning nfs clients. I try to give 5 - 10 minutes warnings. I can abort the shutdown if someone calls. This whole warning stuff gives me some political cover.
