Installing and Managing HP-UX Virtual Partitions (A.02.01)

Monitor and Shell Commands
Using Monitor Commands
Chapter 5 105
reboot
reboots the entire hard partition. Other hard partitions are not
affected.
NOTE You should shut down each virtual partition (using the Unix shutdown
command) prior to executing the monitor reboot command. A
confirmation prompt is provided, but if you accept confirmation of the
reboot while any virtual partitions are running, the reboot brings the
running partitions down ungracefully. For more information, see
“Shutting Down or Rebooting the Hard Partition (rebooting the vPars
monitor)” on page 120.
