RC.SHUTDOWN(8)		OpenBSD System Manager's Manual		RC.SHUTDOWN(8)

NAME
     rc.shutdown - command script run at system shutdown

DESCRIPTION
     When the system is administratively shut down using either the reboot(8)
     or halt(8) command, rc(8) is invoked with the argument ``shutdown'',
     which checks for the existence of a /etc/rc.shutdown script to run before
     halting the system.  This script, like rc.local(8), executes the rc.d(8)
     scripts specified by the rc_scripts variable defined in rc.conf(8) in a
     reverse order.  /etc/rc.shutdown is also for commands added by the system
     administrator.

     The rc.shutdown script is also executed by init(8) if a keyboard-
     requested halt is issued (for architectures that support this).

     If rc.shutdown sets the variable powerdown to ``YES'', halt(8) will
     attempt to power down the machine after it has halted.
