Manages the system halt points.
SYNOPSIS
haltpoint { [ ‑add | ‑delete | ‑list | ‑resume] | [ ‑usage | ‑help ] }
DESCRIPTION
CAUTION
System halt points are used for recovery purposes only. Your
Oracle Customer Support representative uses them to gather diagnostic information or to clear problematic conditions that cannot be obtained or resolved another way. Halt points should never be set or cleared without assistance from your
Oracle Customer Support representative.
When troubleshooting the
Oracle FS System, your
Oracle Customer Support representative might instruct you to set one or more halt points. Setting a halt point on a particular software component causes the system to pause the startup sequence at a step associated with that component. The system will generate an event and an alert indicating it has reached a halt point.
Your
Oracle Customer Support representative might require that you log in to the
/administrator account as the Primary Administrator and perform one of the following operations:
Set one or more active halt points for one or more components.
Remove one or more halt points.
Display all or only the active halt points.
Display the halt point where the system startup process is currently paused.
Resume starting up the system from the current halt point.
Run the
haltpoint command using the options and arguments as instructed by your
Oracle Customer Support representative.
SUBCOMMANDS
