Is there a keyboard shortcut that will reboot a HP-UX system.
Something equivalent to ctrl-alt-del in windows?

First type the "e" key. Then, in succession, the "t", "c",
the "/", the "r", the "e", the "b", the "o", the "o", and the
"t". Then hit carriage return.

If you are on a (web)console try cntrl-b followed by <enter> <enter> and RE
<enter>. Depending on firmware you may have to go to the right menu for
this. Superdome, 8400 and 7410 systems have a very complicated firmware.
Older systems like a K-clas have to be in service mode for this.

Provided the account you use has the proper rights, I can imagine the next
commands that can do a sort of reboot:

reboot
shutdown
halt
init
poweroff

All have options hence check the manualpage on the commands to find details on
how they work, which options the use to do what kind of reboot.

btw: the commands are some generally available commands on most unix systems,
some might not be available on your system.


btw: On a Sun workstation, at the console, you can do a <stop>-a (hold the key
labeled <stop> and press the key next to the <capslock> key which is labeled A
on most keyboards. This will halt/pause the machine and enter the boot-rom. I
never heard of such a keyboard shortcut for HP-UX workstations.

Ctrl+LeftShift+Reset

restarts the X server.
This is not a full reboot
but it might solve some problems with X windows.
