NAME

halt − stop the processor

SYNOPSIS

/etc/halt [ −n ] [ −q ]

DESCRIPTION

halt writes out cached disk information and then enters the PROM monitor.  The machine does not reboot, even if the auto-reboot switch is set. 

halt without the −n or −q option is equivalent to

# telinit 0

The −q and −n options cause a quick halt, no graceful shutdown is attempted. 

With either the −n or −q option specified, halt is equivalent to

# /etc/uadmin 2 0
