Re: Reboot Solaris and Oracle 9i install

Solaris, I believe, uses the System V shutdown command. Although you could use init to switch to the appropriate reboot runlevel, the typical way to reboot a Solaris system is:

# /etc/shutdown -i 6 -g 0 -y

I'll assume you haven't mucked with your inittab.

(This provides no grace period for users to log off. Adjust -g appropriately.)

Re: Reboot Solaris and Oracle 9i install

Use 'shutdown now'
Then 'reboot -r'

List,
Does anyone know the correct Solaris commands to reboot a UNIX Solaris 64 bit os system. Is it init, shutdown or reboot? I'm attempting to install Oracle 9i Release 2 on a Solaris machine. I received a memory error when attempting to create an Oracle database, so I n eed the system rebooted to load the kernel with the correct shared memory and semaphore settings. The system admin is only part time, and currently not available. The system is in single user mode at this time. With all the knowledge on this list, I thought this may be a good place to ask the question or maybe to point me to a document that would have the reboot information.
Thanks,
M.
