yeah, they have their own support forums and stuff.


In case of power failure on this server , how can i make the system to shutdown gracefully so that it unmounts the file-system and cleans up the required buffers.

My server does have a battery backup so it will help in shutting down the system more gracefully.


if your UPS is on this list,
http://www.networkupstools.org/stable-hcl.html
install NUT (Network UPS Tools), available from the EPEL repository, and configure it to talk to your UPS.

NUT documentation:

I tried looking at this link:

https://www.olimex.com/forum/index.php?topic=3326.0


that is advise for a tinylinux embedded system, not a EL 6 system. IMHO, you should never muck about with /etc/inittab on centos/rhel

But it did not help. Appreciate if someone can help me in this regard.

I hope you restored your inittab to its original state.
