help

+ s6 system help prints a short help message summarizing the options +and usage of the s6 system command. It is not as detailed as this page. +

+

+ The rest of the subcommands are shutdown subcommands, and they +only work if the machine makes use of +s6-linux-init/a> and +s6-frontend has been configured to support it. On a machine that +does not boot via s6-linux-init, a shutdown should be executed via +the shutdown commands provided by your init system. In order for +the shutdown to be clean, the s6 live stop_everything -E +should be run before the init system performs a hard shutdown. For +instance, if the system uses /etc/inittab, then the +following line should appear in /etc/inittab: +::shutdown:/usr/bin/s6 live stop_everything -E +
