Wow, so you'll go through all the bother of
individual shutting down any
servers on the system instead of just typing a `shutdown' command which
would do that for you automatically using the init scripts?
Servers? Hell no, they're just serving things.
Ohhh-kaaay... That seems like an awful lot of work on
your part, going out
of your way to PUNISH THE STUPID FILESYSTEMS FOR NOT BEING SMARTER!!!
Not particularly. Most programs can be turned off in a standardised fashion.
I take it you've never worked in a critical
production environment, have
you? When your job is at stake (and therefore your financial well-being),
you don't try to prove a point by not shutting down systems properly...
Even when they are designed to handle such failures.
Of course I haven't. Computers are just toys to me.
Now when you're evaluating systems for purchase.
Hell yeah. Beat them to
death.
Nah, I wouldn't care about that either. After all, they're just toys.
