Hi,
This has probably been discussed here already, but I haven't found any
answers.
Q: Has anyone found a way to do an orderly shutdown of an NT server before
powering down remotely using RSM ?
An NT command level procedure would be OK.
Thanks for any feedback,
Peter.

| 223.1 | Workaround for shutdown | PCBUOA::BRACKEN | Mon Mar 10 1997 08:29 | 11 | |
While connected to the Server with Remote Console activated, activated
RSM Reset Window and use the Warm Boot Button(CTL-ALT-DEL) to cause the
Windows NT Security window to activate if you are logged on. You will
not see the window because RSM console does not show graphics but will
accept keystrokes. Now use "Alt S" and Enter. This should shut down the
system.
In the next Version of RSM we plan to have drivers and shutdown
capability.

| 223.2 | Thank you, but more questions... | ULYSSE::STRATMAN | Peter Stratman @VBO | Mon Mar 10 1997 09:19 | 16 |
Rich,
I understand, but you do everything "blindly", you don't see any error
messages, you have to select between shutdown and shutdown and reboot,
you don't know whether the systems really shut down,.. etc. I expect
that customers running a production application may have trouble
liking this.
- Can an NT system be shut down cleanly with something like PCanywhere, or
a script ?
- Can product mgt provide me us with a tentative date for a new version
support a bid ?
Thanks,
Peter.

| 223.3 | When will the RSM have graphics? | PCBUOA::BRACKEN | Fri Mar 14 1997 08:48 | 8 | |
Why not use PC Anywhere for Graphics console and RSM for text mode when
the OS is down and you need to recover.
Product Management is waiting on a schedule from Engineering who is
waiting on approval of funds to start the next RSM project.
If you want it to get started make more noise through management
channels.
