Rebooting after AUTOGEN  



After AUTOGEN finishes, the system automatically shuts down, displaying messages similar to the following:
The system will automatically reboot after the shutdown and the
installation will be complete.
 
 
 
        SHUTDOWN -- Perform an Orderly System Shutdown
                    on node ALPCSI
 
%SHUTDOWN-I-BOOTCHECK, performing reboot consistency check...
%SHUTDOWN-I-CHECKOK, basic reboot consistency check completed
.

.
After the shutdown of an OpenVMS I64 system, you must boot the system manually, as described in Booting the New OpenVMS I64 System Disk.

The OpenVMS Alpha system should automatically reboot after the shutdown; the installation will be complete. However, if the Alpha system does not reboot automatically, reboot the system manually. For example, if the system disk is on an RZ25 disk drive with a unit number of 1, enter the following command and press Return:

>>> BOOT DKA1
When the system starts booting, a message similar to the following is displayed:

When the system reboots, it displays informational messages and accounting information indicating that your OpenVMS Alpha operating system has finished booting and is now ready for use. For example:
