The
|
|
.Nm poweroff ,
|
|
.Nm halt
|
|
and
|
|
.Nm

a SIGTERM, wait up to 30 seconds for them to die, send a SIGKILL to the
|
|
survivors and, respectively, power down, halt or restart the system.
|
|
The action is logged, including entering a shutdown record into the login
|
|
accounting file and sending a message via

.Ic exec reboot
|
|
or
|
|
.Ic exec halt .
