After trying fruitlessly on support.avaya.com, I must come to those who know for this information.

I need to properly shut down our CMS so that I can move the power suppy from a non-protected circuit to a protected circuit (a UPS was put in place for it just today). I'd rather shut the box down gracefully, but am not averse to simply pulling the power if I can't get the correct procedure.

Can someone advise me as to how to shut the CMS down correctly? All I know how to do is login to the box and do a backup. I know nothing operational about this box.

A Million-Bazillion thanks for any assistance!
 
Disregard my previous post. I have discovered the information for which I seek.
 
POSTING: In case there may be others looking in the future:

How can I shutdown and restart my CMS operating system?
This procedure is the same as restart on a Windows PC.

The following command shuts down and restarts the CMS operating system. It is recommended that the CMS server be given a shutdown/restart monthly when the CMS system admin backup is performed.

Login as root, the "#" prompt appears.

To shutdown/restart the CMS server, enter the following command at the # prompt.:

# /usr/sbin/shutdown -y -g0 -i6

Note: -y is the yes or no verification;-g0 is grace period, Zero seconds ;-i6 option shuts down and restarts the operating system.

If this command is performed to solve a problem with slow performance or some other issue and the problem reappears, call the CMS help line to identify the real issue.
