(This is due to Ubuntu's shift in using systemd instead of Upstart) systemctl poweroff I already have a growl message setup letting me know when the power goes out (forwarded to my iphone over prowl, etc etc). I keep apcupsd running on my mac mini server, and if the power goes out, i want it to tell my machines to shut down.
#SHUTDOWN MAC FROM TERMINAL HOW TO#
Hibernate: (if enabled on your system) /usr/bin/dbus-send -system -print-reply -dest="" /org/freedesktop/UPower I want to know how to initiate that from the terminal.
#SHUTDOWN MAC FROM TERMINAL MAC OS#
Suspend: /usr/bin/dbus-send -system -print-reply -dest="" /org/freedesktop/UPower If you feel like trying this yourself (and you have all data saved and nothing important open) do the following: Open the Terminal in Mac OS (found in /Applications/Utilities/ folder) Enter the following command syntax exactly: Hit the return key and authenticate with an administrative password to. Restart: /usr/bin/dbus-send -system -print-reply -dest="" /org/freedesktop/ConsoleKit/Manager .RestartĬonsolekit should of course be installed your system. Shutdown: /usr/bin/dbus-send -system -print-reply -dest="" /org/freedesktop/ConsoleKit/Manager .Stop 1: Restart Your Mac Automatically After It Freezes.

A safe way to do this without using sudo and without tinkering with the system, is by executing these one-liner commands: For Ubuntu 14.10 or earlier: Terminal Shutdown Mac Copy and paste the following command in your Terminal window: log show -predicate eventMessage contains Previous shutdown cause -last 24h The 24h portion of the command can be changed to any number of hours, depending on how far back you need to see.
