<title>Description</title>
<para><command>shutdown</command> may be used to halt, power off, or reboot the machine.</para>
<para>The first argument may be a time string (which is usually
<literal>now</literal>). Optionally, this may be followed by a
wall message to be sent to all logged-in users before going
down.</para>
<para>The time string may either be in the format
<literal>hh:mm</literal> for hour/minutes specifying the time to
execute the shutdown at, specified in 24h clock format.
Alternatively it may be in the syntax <literal>+m</literal>
referring to the specified number of minutes m from now.
<literal>now</literal> is an alias for <literal>+0</literal>, i.e.
for triggering an immediate shutdown. If no time argument is
specified, <literal>+1</literal> is implied.</para>
<para>Note that to specify a wall message you must specify a time
argument, too.</para>
<para>If the time argument is used, 5 minutes before the system
goes down the <filename>/run/nologin</filename> file is created to
ensure that further logins shall not be allowed.</para>
