How to reboot from # in ioinitrc prompt ?

Tried to change instance no. on cluster system.Apparently my /infile has some problems and so system will spit out error after command below.
(in ioinitrc)# /sbin/ioinit -f /infile -r

I have moved back by orig. /etc/ioconfig and /stand/ioconfig file using mv command form ioinitc prompt. how do i reboot from here ?

Not sure but try using "reset" or "exit" !!

but i don't think there will be any risk involved in directly powercylcing the system.
If you are on console you can do this thr' GSP also by pressing .

ioinit -r should it.
else ioinit -f "correct_file" -r

/sbin/ioinit is called from the boot /etc/inittab entry.

put back the /sbin/ioinit command

interact on the console..

then see if you can get control again, and
type /sbin/ioinit -c

but but before you do this, save your old /etc/ioconfig to /etc/ioconfigOLD
