Shutdown from Bash#

Hi
I am not able to shutdown a PC from the ZEN Imaging Engine bash#.
I have tried: "shutdown -f", "shutdown -h now" and so on, what is the right
command to shutdown the PC?
regards
Sebastian

IMac will only restart or shutdown from power button.

My iMac will only restart or shutdown from the power button, it also will not logoff users. It starts ok, but only after a hard reboot?? I have repaired permisions and no change. I have a clone I can restore from but any ideas whats up here?
The only things that I know I have altered are deleting files saved during migration from Panther (months ago)and running Unbuntu Live CD.
iMac G4 15 Mac OS X (10.4.7) 728ram

Are you booting into Ubuntu Linux? Most of us here wouldn't now anything to do with it. If the problem is occurring when booted into Mac OS X, it may be a sign of data corruption in the power management and user settings. Some corruption is easy to repair such as fixing the directory (which I'd only do after a clone). Here's how according to my FAQ:
http://www.macmaps.com/directoryfaq.html
And I assume the issue is with your iMac G4.

Scripting question: Is there a difference between shutdown from within the VM and using the WMIService InitiateShutdown

Hi,
Are there any problems with shutting down a virtual machine using a script? (example of shutdown script here).
In this case, I want to start VM's in a particular sequence and timing, and then reverse the sequence and timing for shutdown. The built-in settings of hyper-V haven't been adequate.
Is the command "ShutdownList.ItemIndex(0).InitiateShutdown(True,"script
shutdown")" the same thing as initiating a GUI activated shutdown process?
If not, does commanding a shutdown from the host using a script cause
any system problems inside the VM? If so, are there other or better ways to accomplish this?
Thanks.
Best Regards,
Alan

[SOLVED] I cannot shutdown from Xfce

I use arch 64 bit, xfce 4.4.1 and kdm. After update today I can no longer shutdown from xfce - I can only log out to kdm, and then shutdown.
I am in group 'power' and I have /opt/xfce4/libexec/xfsm-shutdown-helper in sudoers, but that file (xfsm-shutdown-helper) seem to no longer exist in that place or anywhere else in my hdd. What should I do?

to enable shutdown via hal, just add your user to the power group and make sure hal is running. easy as that.
How should I start hal? Should I add it to deamons on /etc/rc.conf?
yes
It works. Thanks!

[SOLVED] how to detect archlinux from bash ?

Is there any simple way ho to detect from bash it is currently running on Arch? I frequntly usde both arch and debian and want top set up my .bashrc & .nash_profile to be the same on both systems so I need some way how to make some part conditional for arch or debian only.
Last edited by stabele (2009-10-16 12:50:18)

You could look in /etc/. Debian has some specific files /etc/debian-version, /etc/apt/source.list. Archlinux has /etc/arch-release. Unless you keep the same /etc for both of your distrib, that should do the trick. I am not aware of another way to check which distrib the shell is running on.

Startup and shutdown from command line with version 9i

Hi, i'm an Oracle newbie. I heard it's possible to startup and shutdown an oracle (instance? or database? which one is it) from the command line.
A little background on what it is that I want to do:
I'm looking to backup a database by copying the files that make up the database to a location from where they will be commited to tape media. To do this I must shutdown the database, copy the files, and startup the database again.
At the moment the backups are full exports which I find unnecessary since it is a development database which is never used at night. It is therefore not an issue if we want to shut it down and re-start it after a few minutes. (I think it would take longer to export as opposed to copy the files right?)
I need help and advice :
1. Is my way of going about this correct ?
2. How do I startup/shutdown from the command line (sqlplus user/password command) or should I use another utility ?
Thanks,
Gabriel

set oracle_sid=ORCL ==> your database namethis is NOT always true. It's instance name. usually, we set instance name is same as database name.But we also can set instance name is different from database name.
for example.

How do I shutdown from within Genome??

How do I shutdown from within Genome??
There is only a logout option - and that do not work.
If I open a terminal and enter init 5 nothing happens.
Or so it seems some services maybe stop.
BUT there is no logoff and shutdown of Genome. So I swicth
off my pc and next time I boot up my file system was corrupted.
FSCK did not work I end up install everything this time use bypass

How do I go to a command line environment within Genome
a .dtconfig stop ?? Will this let Genome come down without
booting up and loosing my system again??

ok... i figured it out... a 'Sprite' is really also a DisplayObjectContainer... so if i make my class an extension of Sprite i can 'addChild' to the Sprite and then add them all to the stage at once by adding Sprite to the stage...

Disable shutdown from console

Does anyone know if there is an easy way to restrict access to the "Commands" page
(the page where you see the buttons for Shutdown, Cancel Shutdown, Disable Logins,
etc.) from the Weblogic v5.1 console? The problem I have is that due to some
high ranking staff wanting to be able to access the console, I do not want them
to have access to that page in case they accidentally shutdown the server. If
it is not possible, is there some kind of hack which can be implemented which
will allow me to disable at least the Shutdown from the console? (ie. the name
of the class being invoked, so I can rename it or something).
I am not sure how to handle this issue, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Jim

You could create users for them and set-up the ACLs the way you want them to be. As
far as I remember there is an ACL for the shutdown from the console, so you should be
able to achieve what you want to do.

Deyan

[SOLVED] From bash to zsh :: history completion search

Hey folks,
I'm switching from bash to zsh but I miss a feature and I don't know how to implement it on zsh.
On bash, in my .inputrc I have :
"\e[A":history-search-backward
"\e[B":history-search-forward
What it does is it searches in the history of commands to complete when you do up arrow.
I'm not sure I'm clear so here is an exemple :
$nano pouet
$pwd
then if I do
$na
and type arrow up it gives me
$nano pouet
Without this tremendously important feature it gives me
$pwd
So, how can I have the same in zsh ?
Regards,
~ktr

The info is on the man page. The widget are history-beginning-search-backward and history-beginning-search-forward
use bindkey, e.g.
bindkey '\e[A' history-beginning-search-backward
bindkey '\e[B' history-beginning-search-forward

That code will send both numbers on a single line in standard input to the java process. So if the process reads standard input, it will get a single line that has this in it: "10 20".
I'm guessing you're sending that whole line to Integer.parseInt. But a valid number doesn't have a space in the middle.
You should split up the line using String.split. Or use a StringTokenizer. Or a regular expression. Or you can use a java.util.Scanner. Or a java.io.StreamTokenizer. Or maybe some other stuff that has slipped my mind at the moment.

Is there anyway to shutdown from Terminal

My aging G5 running Leopard is hanging up at random times. Up to now, I have had to shut down the machine by pushing and holding the power switch. I know this is a bad thing to do, but I do not know any other way.
Is there any special set of keystrokes that will bring up the terminal from a hung up machine and allow me then shut it down ????
Thanks for your help.
Dick B

Hi Dick, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Nothing at all may work depending where/how it's froze, but the key combo of Control+Eject, (F12), may bring up the Restart/Shutdown Dialog box and the 1st letter of each will selct that button.
CommandOptionesc = Bring up Force Quit window
CommandControleject = Restart immediately
CommandOption+Controleject = Shutdown immediately
CommandControlpower button = Force restart

Writing to mplayer's stdin from bash script.

I was just fulling with some bash script in order to automate the listening of my favorite radio stations via mplayer and a bash script. Going through the mplayers manual I saw the option -slave.
-slave
This option switches on slave mode. This is intended for use of MPlayer as a backend to other programs. Instead of intercepting keyboard events, MPlayer will read simplistic command lines from its stdin. The section SLAVE MODE PROTOCOL explains the syntax.
At first I thought "ok, easy". I made some tries like "mplayer -slave -quiet .... < /tmp/stdin &" and then something like "echo -e 'mute' > /tmp/stdin" but it wouldn't work.
Is it possible to send a process to the background inside a bash script and then write to it's stdin?
SLAVE MODE PROTOCOL
If the -slave option is given, playback is controlled by a line-based protocol. Each line must contain one command otherwise one of the following tokens:
Commands
seek <value> [type=<0/:1/:2>]
Seek to some place in the movie. Type 0 is a relative seek of +/:- <value> seconds. Type 1 seek to <value> % in the movie. Type 2 is a seek to an absolute position of <value> seconds.
audio_delay <value>
Adjust the audio delay of value seconds
quit
Quit MPlayer
pause
Pause/:unpause the playback
grap_frames
Somebody know ?
pt_step <value> [force=<value>]
Go to next/:previous entry in the playtree.
pt_up_step <value> [force=<value>]
Like pt_step but it jumps to next/:previous in the parent list.
alt_src_step <value>
When more than one source is available it selects the next/:previous one (only supported by asx playlist).
sub_delay <value> [abs=<value>]
Adjust the subtitles delay of +/:- <value> seconds or set it to <value> seconds when abs is non zero.
osd [level=<value>]
Toggle osd mode or set it to level when level > 0.
volume <dir>
Increase/:decrease volume
[contrast|brightness|hue|saturation] <-100-100> [abs=<value>]
Set/:Adjust video parameters.
frame_drop [type=<value>]
Toggle/:Set frame dropping mode.
sub_visibility
Toggle subtitle visibility.
sub_pos <value>
Adjust subtitles position.
vo_fullscreen
Switch to fullscreen mode.
tv_step_channel <dir>
Select next/:previous tv channel.
tv_step_norm
Change TV norm.
tv_step_chanlist
Change channel list.

FIFO's are awesome and can be (ab)used for a lot of cool stuff.
I've written some applications that do just what you are trying to do ( http://github.com/trapd00r/rmcd and http://github.com/trapd00r/RPD ), if you need inspiration.
As for the backgrounding - you want to make a 'daemon', to detach from the running shell. See man fork, man 3 setsid and man 3 wait / man 3 waitpid (or my daemonize() function).

Windows service does not stop when DB is shutdown from SQL*Plus

I have a 11g XE DB in a Windows 7 machine.
The installation has created a Windows service called OracleServiceXE. It's status is STARTED.
I then login to SQLPLUS as sysdba and do a shutdown immediate;
SQL> shutdown immediate
Database closed.
Database dismounted.
ORACLE instance shut down.
Problem is, when I refresh the services, the OracleServiceXE is still showing as STARTED.
If I use the listener control to stop the listener the Windows service OracleXETNSListener changes status to BLANK.
Why is this?

tvCa-Oracle wrote:
That service is a prerequisite Windows service to be able to start the database, but it is not the status of the database itself.
When you do start the database, he may or may not start the service automatically (not sure there), but it is a needed service, for each database SID, on Windows.
If you want to know what it is, open Task Manager or Process Explorer, only start the service (not the database), and see which OS process is launched.
AFAIK, this is only on Windows, there's no comparable component on Linux/Unix for this.
The Windows service OracleServiceXE has c:\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server\bin\ORACLE.EXE XE as the Parth to executable.
If I click on the Services tab in Task manager, then right-click the OracleServiceXE and click Go to process, it show the oracle.exe in the processes tab.
If stop it, the service, from the Windows service control, the oracle.exe disappears and we cannot login to the DB.
If we start the service from the windows service control, the oradim.exe appears, then a second later the oracle.exe appears. Once the DB status of the Windows service is STARTED, the oradim.exe disappears.
So, I can start and stop the oracle DB with the Windows service. But If I stop the DB from sql*plus the the service is not stopped....

Shutdown from Bash#
