rcontrol(1)
To stop a partition in the active configuration, use rcontrol with the stop command
and the partition argument followed by the name of the partition. To stop all of the
partitions in the active configuration, use rcontrol with the stop command and the
configuration argument followed by the name of the configuration.
When stopping partitions you can optionally specify what should happen to the running
jobs. The options are to leave them running, to wait for them to exit or to kill them. The
default is to leave them running.
# rcontrol stop partition = par1 option = kill
# rcontrol stop configuration = day option = wait
Configuring Nodes In or Out
To configure a node in or out, use rcontrol with the configure in or configure
out commands. Use the nodes argument to specify the list of nodes being configured in
or out.
# rcontrol configure in nodes = ’atlas[2-4]’
# rcontrol configure out nodes = ’atlas[2,5-7]’
Note that partitions must be stopped before nodes can be configured in or out. Jobs may
be left running but any jobs running on a node while it is being configured out will be
killed. When stopping a partition, it is advisable to wait until jobs have exited (or kill
them).
