]> @LXC_GENERATE_DATE@ lxc-shutdown 1 lxc-shutdown externally shut down or reboot a container lxc-shutdown -n name -w -r Description lxc-shutdown sends a SIGPWR signal to the specified container to request it to cleanly shut down. If -w is specified, then lxc-shutdown will wait until the container has shut down before exiting. If -r is specified, the container will be asked to reboot (using a SIGINT signal), and -w will be ignored. If the container ignore these signals, then nothing will happen. In that case, you can use lxc-stop to force the container to stop. &commonoptions; &seealso; Author Serge Hallyn serge.hallyn@canonical.com
