Shut Down the OS (shutdown Command)

You must have the console role (c) to complete this task.

  1. Log in to Oracle ILOM.

    See Log In to Oracle ILOM (CLI).

  2. Start the host console.

    See Start the Host Console.

  3. If you logged in to Oracle ILOM with a user account other than the root user, switch to the root account by using the su command.
  4. Shut down the OS.

    Use these command options with the shutdown command:

    • -g0 – Specifies a grace period of 0 seconds.

    • -i0 – Specifies the run level 0, which is equivalent to the init 0 command.

    • -y – Pre-answers the confirmation question so that the command runs without user intervention.

    # shutdown -g0 -i0 -y
