my commands are all lowercase as my samples show. when i saw the REBOOT 
error i tried other options with `shutdown` or even systemctl commands 
thinking it was something with the bash inline shell or even the example 
for direct path to /usr/sbin/{reboot..shutdown}

will have to play with amazon linux 2 (also rhel based) and also ubuntu 16 
and see if its same issue.
