Shutdown using REST API?

Tom-

I did not find any Node id to shutdown the UTM via REST API. As my UPS is not supported I want to use REST API to shutdown the UTM in case of power fail.

    Hi Tommy and welcome,

     

    the RESTful API is avilable on all flavors of the UTM; also outside of AWS.

     

    Regarding your question: the API is meant to be used for configuration purposes only at the moment. That's the reason why there is no shutdown command available. Do you see that use case you've described as a common scenario?

     

    Best,

    i use ssh to shutdown my home UTM from script.

    (plink is a tool similar to putty...)

    c:\.....\plink.exe -v -ssh loginuser@astaro.mydomain.local -pw mypassword -m "c:\program files\UNIX_commands.txt"

    content of c:\program files\UNIX_commands.txt:

    sudo /sbin/shutdown -h now


    to make this working, shutdown must make be usable without sudo password.
