Daniel,

Mike's bootshell program was meant to be used in conjunction with setting
the secondary user to something like PROP, or OPER, so that a "CP send
linuxguest halt" command could be done via automation.

Subject: Clean shutdown for linux guests under VM


Hi all, we are running a small number of RH 7.2 images under VM.  We are
currently using vmpoff=LOGOFF in our boot parameters, and a version of
Michael Kershaw's bootshell.cc to make a clean linux shutdown easier,
but I'm hoping to make it easier than logging in to z/VM for each guest
and running halt.  What solutions are people using to automate
shutdowns?  I guess I'm asking a two part question: a) methods people
use to kick-off multiple-guest shutdown, and b) possibly something that
could be triggered by the VM shutdown process.

Thanks for any pointers,
~ Daniel
