|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility provides an automated shutdown procedure for super-users
|
|
to nicely notify users when the system is shutting down,
|
|
saving them from system administrators, hackers, and gurus, who
|
|
would otherwise not bother with such niceties.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following options are available:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Fl h
|
|
The system is halted at the specified
|
|
.Ar time .
|
|
.It Fl p
|
|
The system is halted and the power is turned off
|
|
(hardware support required)
|
|
at the specified
|
|
.Ar time .
|
|
.It Fl r
|
|
The system is rebooted at the specified
|
|
.Ar time .
|
|
.It Fl k
|
|
Kick everybody off.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl k
|
|
option
|
|
does not actually halt the system, but leaves the
|
|
system multi-user with logins disabled (for all but super-user).
|
|
.It Fl o
|
|
If one of the
|
|
.Fl h ,
|
|
.Fl p
|
|
or
|
|
.Fl r
|
|
is specified,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will execute
|
|
.Xr halt 8
|
|
or
|
|
.Xr reboot 8
|
|
instead of sending signal to
|
|
.Xr init 8 .
|
|
.It Fl n
|
|
If the
|
|
.Fl o
|
|
is specified, prevent the file system cache from being flushed by passing
|
|
.Fl n
|
|
option to
|
|
.Xr halt 8
|
|
or
|
|
.Xr reboot 8 .
|
|
This option should probably not be used.
|
|
.It Ar time
|
|
.Ar Time
|
|
is the time at which
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will bring the system down and
|
|
may be the word
|
|
.Ar now
|
|
(indicating an immediate shutdown) or
|
|
specify a future time in one of two formats:
|
|
.Ar +number ,
|
|
or
|
|
.Ar yymmddhhmm ,
|
|
where the year, month, and day may be defaulted
|
|
to the current system values. The first form brings the system down in
|
|
.Ar number
|
|
minutes and the second at the absolute time specified.
|
|
.It Ar warning-message
|
|
Any other arguments comprise the warning message that is broadcast
|
|
to users currently logged into the system.
|
|
.It Fl
|
|
If
|
|
.Sq Fl
|
|
is supplied as an option, the warning message is read from the standard
|
|
input.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
At intervals, becoming more frequent as apocalypse approaches
|
|
and starting at ten hours before shutdown, warning messages are displayed
|
|
on the terminals of all users logged in. Five minutes before
|
|
shutdown, or immediately if shutdown is in less than 5 minutes,
|
|
logins are disabled by creating
|
|
.Pa /var/run/nologin
|
|
and copying the
|
|
warning message there. If this file exists when a user attempts to
|
|
log in,
|
|
.Xr login 1
|
|
prints its contents and exits. The file is
|
|
removed just before
|
|
.Nm
|
|
exits.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
At shutdown time a message is written to the system log, containing the
|
|
time of shutdown, the person who initiated the shutdown and the reason.
|
|
Corresponding signal is then sent to
|
|
.Xr init 8
|
|
to respectively halt, reboot or bring the system down to single-user state
|
|
(depending on the above options).
|
|
The time of the shutdown and the warning message
|
|
are placed in
|
|
.Pa /var/run/nologin
|
|
and should be used to
|
|
inform the users about when the system will be back up
|
|
and why it is going down (or anything else).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A scheduled shutdown can be canceled by killing the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
process (a
|
|
.Dv SIGTERM
|
|
should suffice).
|
|
The
|
|
.Pa /var/run/nologin
|
|
file that
|
|
.Nm
|
|
created will be removed automatically.
