6.3.2.1 “shutdown” Command

The “shutdown” command shutdown the entire system normally.

It waits until all tasks that are currently running are terminated, and then terminates the entire operating system when all tasks are terminated. When the system is shut down, all operations on the system are terminated, all network connections are terminated, and the logon users are disconnected.

6.3 System Connection and Termination

6.3.1 How to Terminate

On Linux systems, the following command can be used by default when exiting the currently running system. We will review each of these termination methods here:

■ Shutdown — Shut down the system normally.

■ Halt — Forcibly terminates the system.

■ Poweroff — Halt the system and shut off the power.

■ Reboot — Halt the system to shut down and then restart the system.

■ Logout — Terminates the current user.

This section willl explain the case where it is set to start as Terminal at first when booting.

6.2.3.1 Starting Local Terminal Connection

When booting from the Raspberry Pi system, various messages related to booting are displayed on the console connected to the system. When booting is complete, the following Terminal screen is started.

6.2.2 Setting for Local Connection Method

When the Pi system boots, how it initially starts up in the console depends on the booting-related settings of the system. When you set the booting option, you specify what type of connection you want the console to use, and determine whether you want to connect to the Terminal or use the Desktop window method. For detailed procedure and details, please refer to the description of [9.5 Setting Boot Startup Screen].

6.2 Local Connection

This section will examine in detail the local connection method connecting to the Raspberry Pi system at the console. The remote connection method via network will be described in detail in [18.2 Remote Terminal Connection].

6.2.1 Progress Flow of Terminal at Console

At the console of the Raspberry Pi system, you can use all seven Terminal connections when connecting to the system. If you press CTRL + ALT + F1 ~ F7, you can see each Terminal connection provided by the system.

These terms have expanded its meaning along with the history of computer development in the past, and they are still mixed in various meanings. Raspberry Pi is a very small computer, unlike a typical large computer. To simplify the discussion in this environment, we want to simplify the meaning of the terms used and make them easier to understand.

6.1.1 Basic Diagram of Sysem Configuration

Modern large computer systems usually have the following configuration and interrelationships each other.

At the center of the computer system framework is the central computer responsible for handling all the computers in the system configuration. This central computer usually consists of one or more main server computers and a console computer for system administrators who manage those computers is connected toit. These are typically managed within a computer room or data center that is managed separately under special control, control access through a variety of physical security devices, and control many unauthorized external connections using many network security devices.
