To perform a graceful shutdown of the server while running a Solaris, Linux or
UNIX® operating system, use this procedure.

This command shuts down the OS.
Depending on which OS you are using, you may also have to push the platform
power button on the front panel after the OS shuts down.
2. Do one of the following actions, depending on which model of server you have:
If you have a Sun Fire V20z server, turn off the AC power switch on the server
back panel to remove AC power.
If you have a Sun Fire V40z server, disconnect all power cords from all power
supplies to remove AC power.
