Automatic shutdown in Linux
You can tell your Linux box to shut down at a certain time of day using and customizing one of the commands below:
shutdown 8:00 -- Shutdown at 8:00 shutdown +13 -- Shutdown after 13 minutes shutdown -r now -- Shutdown and restart shutdown -k +2 -- Display the "The system is going DOWN to maintenance mode in 2 minutes!" message shutdown -h now -- Shutdown and halt shutdown -c -- Cancel ongoing shutdown command
