Using Microsoft Windows Commands

Microsoft Windows includes the following commands for shutting down and rebooting an
nPartition:
shutdown /r
shutdown /s
Lists and configures boot options list for the local
nPartition.
Lists, enables, or disables the nPartition autoboot
configuration value.
Lists and configures the nPartition ACPI configuration
setting, which determines whether HP-UX, Windows, or
Linux can boot on the nPartition.
To boot Windows Server 2008, you must set the ACPI
configuration setting for the nPartition to windows.
When set, causes nPartition hardware to be powered off
when the OS issues a shutdown for reconfig command.
On mid-range servers with a windows ACPI configuration
setting, this is the default behavior. This command is
available only on mid-range servers.
When set, causes nPartition cells to remain at BIB when
the OS issues a shutdown for reconfig command. In this
case an OS shutdown for reconfig makes the nPartition
inactive. This command is available only on mid-range
servers.
Resets the local nPartition, resetting cells and proceeding
with the nPartition boot phase.
Performs a shutdown for reconfig of the local nPartition,
resetting cells and holding them at the wait at BIB state,
making the nPartition inactive.
Shuts down Windows and performs a reboot for reconfig of the nPartition.
Cells are reset and nPartition reconfiguration occurs as needed. The nPartition
then proceeds with the nPartition boot phase.
Shuts down Windows and performs a shutdown for reconfig of the nPartition.
The default behavior differs on HP Integrity Superdome servers and HP
Integrity mid-range servers.
On HP Integrity Superdome servers, shutdown /s causes cells to be reset
and nPartition reconfiguration to occur as needed. Cells then remain at a wait
at BIB state, and the nPartition is inactive.
