Provided shutdown scripts explanation

...

titleNote for Red Hat Enterprise Linux/CentOS 7 and 8

(warning) Whatever the shutdown script execution result is, the stop request sent by the systemctl command will stop the emulator. It is very important then to ensure the stop script has been tested and validated.

charon_gstop_expect

  • Check if there's an active connection to the console on the local host, kill if any.
  • Execute the /opt/charon/utils/guest_shutdown.exp expect script with the values provided: username (root), password, prompt, operating system (either TRU64 or VMS). This script is able to send the shutdown command depending on the returned characters on the console. This can be the SRM prompt ">>>", the "login:" or "username:" prompts or the prompt of the logged in user.
  • Report all output to /opt/charon/log/console.stop.<guest name>.log.
