Unix Command to Shutdown

What is the most basic way to shutdown via the command line? Thanks.
Steve M.

What will happen to open Mac applications?
The question of using Terminal to shutdown arose because of a very strange situation I encountered last evening. I was in the middle of saving a document as a PDF when all of a sudden the system started acting crazy. I would get a rapid staccato of warning beeps assiciated with the curson dancing around on the desktop from icon to icon highlighting each in rapid succession. Selecting something from the menu bar resulted in the focus rapidly shifting all along the row of choices, for example with Safari, the focus would shift from Apple to Safari to File to View to History, you get the picture. I was unable to quit open apps. I was unable to pull down the Apple menu to get to shutdown or restart or logout. I succeded in opening terminal somehow and got a few lines of gibberish followed by the prompt. I tried sudo shutdown but was not aware of using -h or -r. But somehow, just opening Terminal had cause my system to settle down and stabilize and I was able to shutdown normally from the Apple menu. System is fine now. I've never seen anything quite that bizarre (at least since OS 9!).
Thanks,
Steve M.

Unix command to update Microsoft Office 2008 via ARD

I'm looking for a unix command I can send via ARD to update Microsoft Office 2008. It just needs to install all updates and then restart. Kinda like apple's software update one: softwareupdate -i -a; shutdown -r now

Why go through all the trouble of trying to do it in Unix. Apple and Microsoft made it a LOT easier.
Just download the update from Mactopia
Open the .dmg
(for convience and ability to have it stored) Drag the Update from the Microsoft folder that opens up and put the update on your desktop
In ARD Select what computer(s) you want to install the update in
Use ARD Install function to install the update
Go have a cup of coffee and a donut while ARD does the install.
You do not even have to do a restart. Microsoft uses a different icon for the update but it still is a package file operation.

Send Unix Command 'reboot' never completes

I'm going to upgrade the OS on a bunch of machines with the software update command line utility.
It's a simple one liner from ARD, send unix command. I want to add a second line with either reboot or shutdown -r now, but when I do, the taks never completes.
The machine does indeed reboot properly, but the task in ARD never appears to stop.
Why is that?

It never officially completes because the system reboots before the ARD client can report back the successful completion of the task. It's sort of like you asking someone to disconnect your telephone and then wanting them to call you to tell you it's been done. I know of no way to send the reboot command as a UNIX command without the ARD task hanging waiting for the "completion", but perhaps someone else here will have an idea. I just wait for the updates to complete and then I use the ARD Restart command rather than a UNIX command.

What is the absolute client permission needed to receive Unix commands?

The ARD error "This task is not authorized on (computerName)" is forcing me to allow almost all the privileges in the Remote Management section of client computer's Sharing System Preferences. I've already had to add:
"open and quit applications"
"change settings"
"delete and replace items"
"restart and shutdown" (see this Apple document's suggestion for Unix commands)
"copy items"
It makes no sense to my why 'Generate reports' must also be added, but clicking it off makes the error return. I'm just triggering a Unix command that goes something like "echo 1" and runs as root on the one test computer (and potentially dozens, so it wouldn't be pretty changing settings in that many) If it helps, the ARD host is 10.6.7 with ARD 3.4 (installed via the App Store a couple weeks ago) and the clients are 10.4.11 and 10.5.8.
I'm preparing documentation for ARD and some clients installing our software will not warm to the idea of widening up the permissions footprint. Potentially dozens of computers will need to be retweaked, even if they wouldn't have to leave their seat.
We also will need to deploy a pkg installer, so some of those may need to remain checked, but ...
What is the absolute client permission needed to receive Unix commands?
Thanks

Have you tried sending it as User: Root
To my knowledge with that setting you do not need any client permissions as a unix command used as Root overides any permission set. If this is something you need to do often I do know for a fact you can make the report task up use send as Root and tell it to save as template. After this you will be able use the templte to make things a bet quicker. I believe in oder to do this you must enable root user open Directory Utility in order to do this. Keep in mind root has full permissions and any command you enter with unix will be executed as such. This is a word around in the way that the normal client users do not need to have permissions enabled, also having root available at times is handy in stick situations.

I want to execute UNIX COMMAND in ABAP

Hi All,
I want to execute a UNIX XOMMAND sh <scriptname> <filename> to replace divsion codes.in ABAP.
But, I came to know that we can't (2) or try the following program but unfortunately the command CALL SYSTEM is not supported by SAP. If you are on R/3 2.1 - 2.2x you can get some idea's from the program SAPMSOS0.

UNIX command in ABAP code

Hi All,
I need to use unix command (MOVE) in ABAP code for transfering a file from one directory to another directory.
Can any one help with how to used unix commands in ABAP?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Hemendra

The recommended approach always used to be to use transaction SM69 to define a "soft" command name to the operating system command so that it could be configured to work across Windows, Unix etc. For example:
Command name OS Type OS command Parameters for operating system command
Z_FILE_MOVE SunOS Customer mv ? ?
You can then call function module SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE (quite well documented) to actually perform the command passing in the appropriate number of parameters.

Unix commands in ABAP

Hi,
   I need to call the following unix command in ABAP to encrypt a file on the app server .
crypt password <org filename> new_filename
1 But when i run it using call 'SYSTEM' .. i get message security risk , command not executed ..
2 I also created the command in SM69 and tries to run it but same error.
3 I also created a shell script , but i get another message when i try to run sh ...
Please help to find out a way to make it work ..
Kunal

Hi kunal,
1. probably ur basis team might be able to help u.
2. even if we have authorisations thru sap
   to run external os command,
   the actual OS user on application server
   must have the right for it
   and access/write/read/modify
   for the files (provided thru the command)
   in question.
3. Due to this , the systems gives the message
   of SECURITY RISK.

Is there a way to change the VNC password thru unix command in ARD2?

In a local network, I get access denied errors from macs that have the vnc password different than the Administrative login user password. I needed to change the Admistrator password which I did thru the Unix command in ARD2.
Now.
Is there a way to change the VNC password thru unix command in ARD2?
Example:
remote computer setup
Panther 10.3.9
vnc password - gopher
user ID - testARD with admin rights
user password - backdoor
ARD2 Computer setup
10.4.10
login ID - testARD
password - backdoor
I get the blue icon but get an 'access denied' error.
I change the password from backdoor to gopher.
I get the red with dash icon but, can get access to the computer.
What is going on? Is ARD2 using the VNC resource instead of ARDs resources?

A quick search of Google finds this <http://www.macgeekery.com/tips/cli/settingremote_desktops_vnc_password_interminal>. I have not tested this myself.

How to generate a empty file in AL11 using ABAP and unix command

Hi Experts,
when load infopackage triggers it will search file from AL11 if file is available it will get loaded successfully. When there is no file in AL11 error while opening file (orgin A) and the load will fail. At this level i have to write a abap code using unix command to generate a empty file.
Is there any way to achieve the above requirement.
Thanks
Vara

Hi,
If i get your requirement properly then you want to create a blank file if there is no file on the application server so that your infopackage does not fail, am i correct.
If this is your requirement then this can be easily done if you use process chain to load the file via infopackage. Follow the following steps:
1. Add a ABAP program before the infopackage and check if the file is present on the server or not. Use a simple ABAP statement OPEN DATASET <FNAME>. Check the SY-SUBRC after this statement if it is not 0 then it means that the file does not exist on the application server.
2. Once you have established that the file is not present create a flat file using a code similar to the below one
OPEN DATASET FILENAME FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE
MESSAGE D_MSG_TEXT.
IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
WRITE: 'File cannot be opened. Reason:', D_MSG_TEXT.
EXIT.
ENDIF.
* Transferring Data
LOOP AT INT_table.
TRANSFER INT_table-field1 TO FILENAME.
ENDLOOP.
* Closing the File
CLOSE DATASET FILENAME.
3. Add your infopackage step after this ABAP program in your process chain.
I hope this helps.

Terminal - how to find my external hard drive using unix commands

just discovered terminal and using cd and ls commands, which are the only commands i know, i realized that i can't find my external hard drive. i thought it would be listed on my desktop, as it is in the OSX interface, but it isn't there.
not that im skilled enough to use terminal yet, but i thought the first step would be being able to navigate the computer's files.
really curious as to where my external hard drive is and how i can find it using unix commands in terminal.
i was trying to figure it out myself, then i thought surely someone knows this and could tell me in a sec.
thanks.
ibook Mac OS X (10.4.4)
ibook Mac OS X (10.4.4)

"ls /Volumes" will list all volumes, including internal and external hard drives and mounted disk images. I find "disktool -l" more useful in scripts, as it tells you which volume names correspond to which "mount points" under /Volumes. Usually they're the same, but if you have two volumes with the same name, or you try to remount a removable volume before it is fully unmounted, you'll end up with a mount point that consists of the volume name with a numerical suffix.

Calling unix command in Apex Window

I am working on a small project where in; it would be handy to run an external plsql in oracle database which calls for unix command such as tail -f alert.log or tail -1000 alert.log when a button is pressed in the application.
I know the client and server aspect and very difficult to forward the server output to Application specially web based but still thought of trying my luck to get some insights from this forum .
Is this possible in Apex ?
UK

Don't see why not. All the building blocks are there (assuming a recent version of the database, and that 1000 is a realistic metric of the data volume):
1. A script to run the required UN*X commands.
2. An initial log extract file created manually using the script.
3. An external table on the log extract file.
4. An external scheduler job to rerun the log extract script to refresh the log extract.
5. An APEX page with a report based on the external table, and a button that calls the external job.
Note that providing relevant information when asking a question is helpful in determining a solution:
- APEX version
- DB version and edition
- Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener)
- Browser(s) used
- Theme used
- Templates used

Executing UNIX command in Java

I am having problems executing a command in Java. Here's the code I have for executing:
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
                                        BufferedReader input = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
     while((display = input.readLine()) != null)
                         num_1 = Double.parseDouble(display);
                         percent = (num_1 * 100) / (50000000);
                    flip = 1;
                    catch(IOException e)
                    e.printStackTrace();
                    System.exit(1);

"at" UNIX Command in Java Program

Friends,
1. "at" command in UNIX execute Unix command at a scheduled time. 2. For each user there will be a table maintained internally which can be accessed by "at" with "-l" argument.
3. A mail will be sent to the owner with the output of the commands as a message.
I tried to run the "at" command of Unix in JSP, which gets succesfully executed in Oracle 10g App Server container (Installed in Solaris machine). I have tested the successful execution of command with the log file. But I haven't got any mail for the output. If anyone had any idea, please help me.
The code I have wtitten is
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process proc = rt.exec(new String[] {"sh","-c","at 2115 Dec 7 < /export/home/usr1/abc.sh"});
InputStream stderr = proc.getErrorStream();
InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(stderr);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(isr);
String line = null;
logger.info("<ERROR>");
while ( (line = br.readLine()) != null)
logger.info(line);
logger.info("</ERROR>");
int exitVal = proc.waitFor();
logger.info("Process exitValue: " + exitVal);
My doubts are:
1. Who is the owner of the output of "at"command, which gets executed under Oracle 10g App Server container?
2. If no one is the owner, then where will the output of "at" command will go?
3. Is there any other way to execute "at" command of UNIX in java program? If so, then please help me.
Thanks in advance.
regards

filestream I have to ask - what's a chav ?
I have doubts abut what it is :-)
Seriously though, what is that an abbreviation for?
That's a new one to me.
http://www.chavscum.co.uk
chavs are roughly analogous to rednecksI wouldn't use that analogy. While both may lack certain social graces, rednecks typically don't receive ASBOs.
Chavs favor small cars with lots of bling whereas rednecks are likely to drive a pickup or a large sedan.
Chavs have pitbulls in their yards (gardens), rednecks an '84 Mustang LX on cinder blocks.
etc, etc.

Yes, at the begining, I'll tried the unix shell by calling SQL.
I've the problem of passing the parameters through.
It seems to me
we can use
Host in the SQLPLUS to run the unix command.
but I've written it in my sqlplus script, it doesn't work. so I wanna to find an exemple how to use HOST in sqlplus script?
I would have loved to give you an example..but its not unix on my laptop.
But what i can tell you is...u should be doing otherway round.
Not calling Unix commands from SQL but calling SQL's form unix.
You got shell scripts for that.
Write a shell script. Login to SQL execute your code.
exit from sql and then move your file with MV. That's it.
Do post how far you get after trying this.
