sysShutDown

sysShutDown
Provides a graceful shutdown to protect the switch file systems.
SYNOPSIS
sysshutdown
DESCRIPTION
On standalone platforms, use this command to shut down the switch operating system.
On enterprise-class platforms, when sysShutDown is called on the active control processor (CP), the
command shuts down the active CP, standby CP, and any AP blades.
Some platforms will only shut down the operating systems; others will shut down the operating system as
well as shut off the power, that is, the LEDs will turn black.
After executing this command, manually power off the system. To reboot the system, manually turn the
power switch on.
NOTES
This command is not supported on the standby CP.
The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in
place. Refer to Chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS Commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for
details.
