shutdown server command
A–31
A.21 shutdown server command
The
shutdown server
command shuts down and turns off servers. The
shutdown server
command
sends a command to each server telling the server to shut down and turn off its power. If a server has not
shut down and turned off its power after a default period of 90 seconds, the
shutdown server
command
turns off the power to the server through the iLO connection.
Syntax
shutdown server server_name|all [wait=wait_time]
Arguments
server_name|all
Required. Specify the servers to be shut down, or
all
to shut down all servers.
You can specify a single server, a comma-separated list of servers, or a range
of servers.
wait
Optional. Use this option to change the period (the default is 90 seconds) that
the
shutdown server
command waits for the servers to shut down. If a
server has not shut down and turned off its power after the specified period,
the
shutdown server
command turns off the power to the server through
the iLO connection.
If you specify a wait period of 0 (zero) seconds, the command to shut down is
not issued to the servers—instead, the power to the servers is turned off
immediately through the iLO connection.
Avoid using the
wait=0
option, because it powers off the server without
attempting to perform an orderly shutdown. However, the
wait=0
option is
useful and appropriate when the server is hung or otherwise unresponsive. If
you shut down a server pair with the
wait=0
option, when you next reboot the
server pair, one of the servers resets the other. Although both servers eventually
boot, the second server takes much longer to do so than the first server.
Examples
The following example shuts down the
south2
server:
sfs> shutdown server south2
The following example shuts down the
south11
,
south12
, and
south13
servers:
sfs> shutdown server south[11–13]
A.22 start filesystem command
The
start filesystem
command starts a file system. If the file system was previously stopped using the
stop filesystem
command (see Section A.23), the client node connections will have been preserved.
Syntax
start filesystem filesystem_name
Arguments
filesystem_name
Required. Specify the name of the file system you want to start.
Example
The following example starts the file system
data
.
sfs> start filesystem data
