Using Mythshutdown to block shutdown
Mythshutdown can be used to block an automatic shutdown. Since 0.21 it is possible to call mythshutdown --lock from each script so that shutdown will remain blocked until the last script has terminated and called mythshutdown --unlock.
script.sh
#!/bin/bash # Unlock if the script is terminated for any reason trap "/usr/local/bin/mythshutdown --unlock" 0 SIGHUP SIGINT SIGQUIT SIGABRT SIGKILL SIGALRM SIGSEGV SIGTERM # Lock shutdown /usr/local/bin/mythshutdown --lock # Do script stuff
The full command-line options are (taken from version 0.25.1 output):
mythshutdown --help
Misc. Options: -c OR --check Check whether shutdown is possible --lock disable shutdown -x OR --safeshutdown Check if shutdown is possible, and shutdown -t OR --setscheduledwakeup Set wakeup time to the next scheduled recording -w OR --setwakeup Set the wakeup time (yyyy-MM-ddThh:mm:ss) -h OR --help OR --usage Display this help printout, or give detailed information of selected option. --version Display version information. --shutdown Apply wakeup time to nvram and shutdown. -p OR --startup Check startup status -s OR --status check current status -u OR --unlock enable shutdown Logging Options: --loglevel Set the logging level. All log messages at lower levels will be discarded. In descending order: emerg, alert, crit, err, warning, notice, info, debug defaults to info --logpath Writes logging messages to a file in the directory logpath with filenames in the format: applicationName.date.pid.log. This is typically used in combination with --daemon, and if used in combination with --pidfile, this can be used with log rotators, using the HUP call to inform MythTV to reload the file --nodblog Disable database logging. -q OR --quiet Don't log to the console (-q). Don't log anywhere (-q -q) --syslog Set the syslog logging facility. Set to "none" to disable, defaults to none. -v OR --verbose Specify log filtering. Use '-v help' for level info.
