Not putting the hostname or something distinct in my shell prompt, at least on my machine.
sync && reboot
Connection closed by remote host.
Mild panic sets in... Oh, lets up-arrow and see what customer server I just rebooted. Reboot on Solaris did not do a graceful shutdown of anything, it just sig-kills everything. Veritas clustering in it's early years did not like this one bit.
- simmons 5y agoWell... at least you synced! Your comment about Solaris reminds me of the time I learned the hard way that "killall" doesn't do quite the same thing on Solaris as it does on Linux.
- lazyweb 5y agoYup, that's why every single linux system I ever work on has molly-guard installed. Don't know about Solaris back in the day though.
- znpy 5y agoI have fond memory of Veritas cluster manager, if that's what you're talking about.
