### scshutdown

- shut down a cluster

### Synopsis

    scshutdown [-y] [-g grace-period] [message]

## Description

Note - Oracle Solaris Cluster software includes an object-oriented command set. Although Oracle Solaris Cluster software still supports the original command set, Oracle Solaris Cluster procedural documentation uses only the object-oriented command set. For more information about the object-oriented command set, see the `Intro`(1CL) man page.

The `scshutdown` utility shuts down an entire cluster in an orderly fashion.

Before starting the shutdown, `scshutdown` sends a warning message, then a final message asking for confirmation.

Only run the `scshutdown` command from one node.

The `scshutdown` command performs the following actions when it shuts down a cluster:

- Changes all functioning resource groups on the cluster to an offline state. If any transitions fail, `scshutdown` does not complete and displays an error message.

- Unmounts all cluster file systems. If any unmounts fail, `scshutdown` does not complete and displays an error message.

- Shuts down all active device services. If any transition of a device fails, `scshutdown` does not complete and displays an error message.

- Runs `/usr/sbin/init 0` on all nodes. See `init`(1M) for more information.

You can use this command only in the global zone.

You need `solaris.cluster.system.admin` RBAC authorization to use this command. See `rbac`(5).

## Options

The following options are supported:

`-g` grace-period

  Changes the number of seconds from the 60-second default to the time specified by grace-period.

`-y`

  Pre-answers the confirmation question so the command can be run without user intervention.

## Operands

The following operands are supported:

message

  Is a string that is issued after the standard warning message `The system will be shut down in …` is issued. If message contains more than one word, delimit it with single (`'`) or double (`"`) quotation marks. The warning message and the user-provided message are output when there are `7200`, `3600`, `1800`, `1200`, `600`, `300`, `120`, `60`, and `30` seconds remaining before `scshutdown` begins.
