NAME
       reboot - reboot the system

SYNOPSIS
       time] message]

       time] message]

DESCRIPTION
       The  command terminates all currently executing processes except those essential to the system, then reboots the system, or halts, or makes
       the partition ready for reconfiguration.  When invoked without arguments, syncs all disks before rebooting the system.

   Options
       The command recognizes the following options:

	      Shut down the system and halt.

	      Shut down the system and reboot automatically (default).

	      Shut down the system to a ready-to-reconfigure state and reboot if possible.
			     If the partition is unable to reboot, it will stop at a ready-to-reconfigure state.  However, if the option  is  also
			     specified,  the system will always stop at ready-to-reconfigure state.  This option is available only on systems that
			     support hardware partitions.

	      Shut down the system to a ready-to-reconfigure state and do not reboot.
			     This option can be used only in combination with the option.  This option is available only on systems  that  support
			     hardware partitions.

	      Do not sync the file systems before shutdown.
			     The and options are ignored with this option.

	      Sync the file systems before shutdown;
			     for file systems that were cleanly mounted, modify the flag from to (default).

	      Quick and quiet.
			     Suppress  broadcast of warning messages, terminate processes by brute force (with and immediately call with arguments
			     as indicated by the other options (see reboot(2)).  No logging is performed.  The and options are ignored	with  this
			     option.

	      Specify what time
			     will bring the system down.  time can be the word (indicating immediate shutdown) or a future time in one of two for-
			     mats: and The first form brings the system down in number minutes; the second brings the system down at the  time	of
			     day indicated (based on a 24-hour clock).

	      Display	     message  at  the terminals of all users on the system at decreasing intervals as reboot time approaches.  The message
			     must not contain any embedded double quotes.

       At shutdown time a message is written in the file

       (if it exists), containing the time of shutdown, who ran and the reason.

       Only users with appropriate privileges can execute the command.

WARNINGS
       does not invoke the shutdown scripts associated with subsystems to bring them down in a cautious manner.  See shutdown(1M).

       If the option is used in a virtual partition environment on a partitionable system, then the requested reconfiguration will not take  place
       until all the virtual partitions on that hard partition are shut down and the virtual partition monitor is rebooted.
