4 Enter the shutdown commands (see Figure 116).
Example:
shutsys -ip 172.18.127.47 -e true
shutbackup -ip 172.18.127.47 -e true -m 1:00
shutfile -e true -f shutdown -m 2
listshut -ip 172.18.127.47
NOTE:
See "Dell CUI Commands List" on page 132 for a description of all Dell CUI commands.
NOTE:
Each guest operating system requires a minimum of 30 seconds to run the command file before shutdown.
The -m 1 option in the shutfile command in the example below sets one minute as the total time allowed to run the
command file before shutdown, which allows sufficient time for two guest operating systems.
Example: shutfile -e true -f shutdown.sh -m 1
The host and guest operating system shut down orderly and gracefully after the battery discharges for
one minute.
