DESCRIPTION

16       The uadmin command provides control for basic administrative functions.
17       This command is tightly coupled to the system administration procedures
18       and  is  not  intended  for  general use. It may be invoked only by the
19       super-user.
20
21
22       Both the cmd (command) and fcn (function) arguments  are  converted  to
23       integers  and  passed  to  the  uadmin  system  call. The optional mdep
24       (machine dependent) argument is only available for the cmd values of  1
25       (A_REBOOT),  2 (A_SHUTDOWN), or 5 (A_DUMP). For any other cmd value, no
26       mdep command-line argument is allowed.
27
28
29       When passing an mdep value that contains whitespaces, the  string  must
30       be  grouped  together  as a single argument enclosed within quotes, for
31       example:
32
33         uadmin 1 1 "-s kernel/unix"
