Turning Off Power to System Devices

You need to turn off power to all system devices when you do the following:


Note - You can shut down an x86 based system by pressing the power button. Shutting the system off this way causes an ACPI event to be sent to the system, alerting the system that the user has requested a shutdown. Turning the power off this way is equivalent to running the shutdown -i0 or init 0 commands.


For information about turning off power to devices, see the instructions for the specified hardware in the product documentation at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/indexes/documentation/index.html.
