NAME

telinit - change runlevel

SYNOPSIS

telinit RUNLEVEL

DESCRIPTION

telinit may be used to change the runlevel of the system.

The RUNLEVEL argument should be one of the multi-user runlevels 2-5, 0 to halt the system, 6 to reboot the system or 1 to bring the system down into single-user mode.

RUNLEVEL may also be S or s which will place the system directly into single-user mode without actually stopping processes first, you probably won't want that.

NOTES

This tool is provided for compatibility with the traditional System V init(8). Upstart has no notion of runlevels itself, this and the runlevel(8) tool are provided to emulate their behaviour.

When invoked it generates a runlevel event, with an argument containing the new runlevel.
