wickedathletes Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 So the GUI locks up on occasion for me. What I am wondering is why I can't reboot it from the command line anymore This isn't new to 6.3.5, this has been happening for a long time for me. I do have the powerdown plugin installed. I try: reboot powerdown -r now shutdown -r now They all appear to "work" with the System restart now message, but do nothing. Quote Link to comment
wickedathletes Posted August 16, 2017 Author Share Posted August 16, 2017 (edited) bump... server appears to be hung up again and I know when I cmd line reboot it nothing will reboot. any thoughts? Edited August 16, 2017 by wickedathletes Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Powerdown plugin is deprecated. Before rebooting, you should be trying to get your diagnostics. Type "diagnostics" at the command line then shut down and get the diagnostics zip from your flash drive and post it. Quote Link to comment

And if their is a better way when the UI locks up to reboot the server, I would love to know Quote Link to comment
bonienl Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Upgrade to version 6.3.5. This version allows to perform a poweroff or reboot command from CLI (or respective GUI buttons), which tries first a clean shutdown/reboot of the system and in case of trouble a forced shutdown/reboot (just be patient this may take several minutes).
