When I issue a CP SIGNAL I must specify the time with the within option.
Instead of a REXX exec sending CP SIGNAL you have two alternatives,
methinks:
1. You could access the SMAPI function Image_Deactivate via PigIron
<http://pigiron.sourceforge.net>
* E.g., in PigIron's test cases it reads CALL testing
'ImageDeactivate' my.host my.port my.userid my.password
my.custom.imagedeactivate.targetid
my.custom.imagedeactivate.forcetime
2. You could issue the command on some Linux system or image:
* ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] shutdown -hp now
* You'd want to have an id_dsa.pub in place already on
the target so you don't need to issue a password
I think the SMAPI functionality in 5.3 and 5.4 is a cleaner way to build
up a library of local tools
aimed at /mass administration/. That's what it's there for, and now with
PigIron, you can access it
from your PC.
