Omconfig System Shutdown Or Omconfig Servermodule Shutdown
Use the omconfig system shutdown or omconfig servermodule shutdown command to determine the
way in which the system shuts down. During system shutdown, the default is to shut down the operating
system before powering off the system. Shutting down the operating system first closes down the file
system before powering the system down. If you do not want to shut down the operating system first,
use the osfirst=false parameter.
NOTE: The parameter osfirst=false is not available on 13G and later systems. By default, on 13G and
later systems, the operating system shuts down before turning off the server during a remote
shutdown.
The following table displays the valid parameters for the command.
