shutdown delay

[Jayaprakash_1]

HI
I would like to know the way for the shutdown command to wait so that all the necessary application services is closed.
for example:
I ve a database which will take 3 minutes to shutdown gracefully.
but when the shutdown or reboot is executed the system reboots only waiting for one minute
which result in the recovery of database but i would be happy if the system waits for more than 3 minutes after the issual of shutdown command.

Any suggestions.

Hi,
shutdown -y 0 for immediate shutdown.
Replace 0(zero) with values as required.

Hope this helps
