|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm halt
|
|
and
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utilities flush the file system cache to disk, send all running processes
|
|
a
|
|
.Dv SIGTERM
|
|
(and subsequently a
|
|
.Dv SIGKILL )
|
|
and, respectively, halt or restart the system.
|
|
The action is logged, including entering a shutdown record into the user
|
|
accounting database.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Fl d
|
|
The system is requested to create a crash dump.
|
|
This option is
|
|
supported only when rebooting, and it has no effect unless a dump
|
|
device has previously been specified with
|
|
.Xr dumpon 8 .
|
|
.It Fl k Ar kernel
|
|
Boot the specified
|
|
.Ar kernel
|
|
on the next system boot.
|
|
If the kernel boots successfully, the
|
|
.Em default
|
|
kernel will be booted on successive boots, this is a one-shot option.
|
|
If the boot fails, the system will continue attempting to boot
|
|
.Ar kernel
|
|
until the boot process is interrupted and a valid kernel booted.
|
|
This may change in the future.
|
|
.It Fl l
|
|
The halt or reboot is
|
|
.Em not
|
|
logged to the system log.
|
|
This option is intended for applications such as
|
|
.Xr shutdown 8 ,
|
|
that call
|
|
.Nm
|
|
or
|
|
.Nm halt
|
|
and log this themselves.
|
|
.It Fl N
|
|
The file system cache is not flushed during the initial process clean-up,
|
|
however the kernel level
|
|
.Xr reboot 2
|
|
is still processed with a sync.
|
|
This option can be useful for performing a
|
|
.Dq best-effort
|
|
reboot when devices might be unavailable.
|
|
This can happen when devices have been disconnected, such as with
|
|
.Xr iscsi 4 .
|
|
.It Fl n
|
|
The file system cache is not flushed.
|
|
This option should probably not be used.
|
|
.It Fl p
|
|
The system will turn off the power if it can.
|
|
If the power down action fails, the system
|
|
will halt or reboot normally, depending on whether
|
|
.Nm halt
|
|
or
|
|
.Nm
|
|
was called.
|
|
.It Fl q
|
|
The system is halted or restarted quickly and ungracefully, and only
|
|
the flushing of the file system cache is performed (if the
|
|
.Fl n
|
|
option is not specified).
|
|
This option should probably not be used.
|
|
.It Fl r
|
|
The system kills all processes, unmounts all filesystems, mounts the new
|
|
root filesystem, and begins the usual startup sequence.
|
|
After changing vfs.root.mountfrom with
|
|
.Xr kenv 1 ,
|
|
.Nm Fl r
|
|
can be used to change the root filesystem while preserving kernel state.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm fasthalt
|
|
and
|
|
.Nm fastboot
|
|
utilities are nothing more than aliases for the
|
|
.Nm halt
|
|
and
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utilities.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Normally, the
|
|
.Xr shutdown 8
|
|
utility is used when the system needs to be halted or restarted, giving
|
|
users advance warning of their impending doom and cleanly terminating
|
|
specific programs.
|
|
.Sh EXAMPLES
|
|
Replace current root filesystem with UFS mounted from
|
|
.Pa /dev/ada0s1a :
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
kenv vfs.root.mountfrom=ufs:/dev/ada0s1a
|
|
reboot -r
