HP BA322 90087 - Manual (Page 40)

Enter additional location, D, or just press Return:
After you provide the necessary information, a PCSI /PRODUCT command automatically performs
the operation you requested. If you chose options 1, 2, or 4 from the submenu, the PCSI utility
prompts you for additional input and displays additional information.
1.4.8 Using the Execute DCL Option (8)
When you select option 8, you get access to a subset of DCL commands (such as SHOW DEVICE,
MOUNT, and BACKUP) to perform specific preinstallation and maintenance operations. Note,
however, that this is a restricted DCL environment in that certain DCL commands (such as
PRODUCT) and certain utilities (such as VMSINSTAL) do not function as expected because you
are booting from read-only or write-locked media, and because a full system startup has not
been performed.
A triple dollar sign prompt ($$$) indicates that you are in this restricted DCL environment, as
in the following example:
$$$ SHOW DEVICE
To exit the DCL environment and return to the main menu, enter the LOGOUT command.
1.4.9 Using the Shutdown Option (9)
When you select option 9 on the operating system main menu, your system shuts down and you
are returned to the console prompt (>>> on Alpha systems; P00>>> on Integrity servers). The
system displays a message similar to the following (this example shows the message from an
OpenVMS Integrity server system):
Shutting down the system
SYSTEM SHUTDOWN COMPLETE
**** Primary HALTED with code HWRPB_HALT$K_REMAIN_HALTED
**** Hit any key to cold reboot ****
P00>>>
