# cluster shutdown -g0 -y

Sun Cluster 3.2 can be installed on both Sparc and x86/64 platform. 

The command "cluster shutdown -g0 -y" shuts down the entire cluster in an orderly fashion.

cluster shutdown” performs the following actions when it shuts down the cluster: 
  • Changes all functioning resource groups on the cluster to an offline state
  • Unmount all file systems
  • Shuts down all active device services
  • Runs /usr/sbin/init 0 on all nodes
Now, the only difference between Sparc and x86/64 platform is in the last step when /usr/sbin/init 0 is executed.

On Sparc platform, all nodes will drop to "OK" prompt. On x86/64 platform, all nodes will display "Press any key to continue".

By the way, you'll be surprised how extensively is Sun Cluster being used in the healthcare/maritime/defense industry in S'pore.
