NAME

openrc-shutdown - bring the system down

SYNOPSIS

[-d , -no-write ] [-D , -dry-run ] [-H , -halt ] [-k , -kexec ] [-p , -poweroff ] [-R , -reexec ] [-r , -reboot ] [-s , -single ] [-w , -write-only ]

DESCRIPTION

is the utility that communicates with openrc-init8 to bring down the system or instruct openrc-init to re-execute itself. It supports the following options:

-d , -no-write: Do not write the wtmp boot record.
-D , -dry-run: Print the action that would be taken without executing it. This is to allow testing.
-H , -halt: Stop all services, kill all remaining processes and halt the system.
-k , -kexec: Stop all services, kill all processes and boot directly into a new kernel loaded via kexec(8).
-p , -poweroff: Stop all services, kill all processes and power off the system.
-R , -reexec: instruct openrc-init to re-exec itself. This should be used after an upgrade of OpenRC if you are using openrc-init as your init process.
-r , -reboot: Stop all services, kill all processes and reboot the system.
-s , -single: Stop all services, kill all processes and move to single user mode.
-w , -write-only: Stop all services, kill all processes and move to single user mode.
