Reboot
You don't have to be root to reboot the server.

- Change to /opt/tv
$ cd /opt/tv
- Run the reboot script
$ ./tv-reboot.sh
Shutdown
You don't have to be root to shutdown the server.
Make sure iDRAC Virtual Console is accessible or someone is physically present in the datacenter to power on the server if needed.
- Log in as TVadmin with SSH
- Change to /opt/tv
$ cd /opt/tv
- Run the shutdown script
$ ./tv-shutdown.sh
It may take several minutes before the power is cut-off.
