halt
stop the DG/UX System processor

SYNTAX
/etc/halt [ -n ] [ -q ]
DESCRIPTION
Halt updates the file system (see sync(1m)) unmounts all mounted
file systems, and then stops the processor. This transfers
certain system information from main memory to disk. By default,
halt asks the user for confirmation and halts the processor.
Options are:
-n Halt the processor without doing a sync(1m).
-q Halt quickly; do not ask the user for confirmation.
SEE ALSO
sync(1), reboot(2).
WARNING
Using -n -q to shutdown quickly is dangerous, since it does not
stop file system activity before the halt is done.
