Stopping a system by using the ASMI

You might need to stop the system to complete another task. If your system is not managed by the
Hardware Management Console (HMC), use these instructions to stop the system by using the Advanced
System Management Interface (ASMI).
Procedure
1. Log in to the host partition as a user with the authority to run the shutdown or pwrdwnsys (Power
Down System) command.
2. On the command line, enter one of the following commands:
v If your system is running the AIX operating system, type shutdown.
v If your system is running the Linux operating system, type shutdown -h now.
v If your system is running the IBM i operating system, type PWRDWNSYS. If your system is partitioned,
use the PWRDWNSYS command to power off each of the secondary partitions. Then, use the PWRDWNSYS
command to power off the primary partition.
The command stops the operating system. Choose from the following options:
v If the system power turns off, the power-on light begins to slowly flash, and the system goes into a
standby state, continue with step 5.
v If your system does not power off when the last partition powers off, continue with step 3.
3. On the ASMI Welcome pane, specify your user ID and password, and click Log In.
4. In the navigation area, click Power/Restart Control > Power On/Off System. The power state of the
system is displayed.
5. Specify the settings as required and click Save settings and power off. The system power turns off,
the power-on light begins to slowly flash, and the system goes into a standby state.
6. Set the power switches of any devices that are connected to the system to off.
