reboot
NAME
reboot, halt, poweroff - reboot or stop the system
SYNOPSIS
reboot [OPTION]...
halt [OPTION]...
poweroff [OPTION]...
DESCRIPTION
These utilities allow a system administrator to
R reboot , halt or poweroff
the system.
When called without the
-f
option, they simply invoke
shutdown(8)
with the appropriate arguments.
OPTIONS
R -f
Does not invoke
shutdown(8)
and instead performs the actual action you would expect from the name.
This is generally used from the event handler itself.
R -n
Does not call
sync(2)
before performing the reboot; this could result in data loss. On Linux,
this probably has no effect as the kernel flushes all write buffers before
shutting down.
R -h
Iterates
/proc/ide
to find all IDE disk drives and requests that they enter a standby mode
before shutting down. On Linux, this is unnecessary as the kernel will do
this anyway.
R -i
Iterates configured network interfaces and brings them down before shutting
down. On Linux, this is unnecessary as the kernel will do this anyway.
R -p
Instructs the
halt
command to instead behave as
R poweroff .
NOTES
This tool is provided for compatibility with the traditional System V
init(8).
