Use the Oracle ILOM CLI for Immediate Shutdown

This procedure provides instructions for how to perform an immediate shutdown of the server using the Oracle ILOM command-line interface (CLI).

An immediate shutdown of the server powers off the server to standby power mode. This type of shutdown process does not allow the OS to warn users nor does it properly prepare the file system.

---

Caution  -  Data loss. An immediate shutdown powers the server to standby power mode without preparing the file system or warning users. Any unsaved data on the server is lost. Close files and applications and warn users before powering off the server using an immediate shutdown.

---

1. Log in to the Oracle ILOM command-line interface (CLI) using an Administrator account.

   Oracle ILOM displays the default command prompt, indicating that you have successfully logged in to Oracle ILOM.

2. From the CLI prompt, type the following command:

   stop -f /System

   The server immediately powers down to standby power mode.

3. To completely power off the server from standby power mode, disconnect the power cables from the server.

   ---

   Note -  Removing power from the server places it in an unpowered state. When the server has no power, you cannot access the Oracle ILOM service processor (SP).
