Two restart commands in Linux: the difference between reboot and init 6

The init command is used to change the running level of the operating system.

Init 6 is to restart the machine.

Reboot also restarts the machine.

So what's the difference between the two commands?

Using the man command for these two operations, you can see the following:

"init 6" is based on a series of / etc/inittab files, and each application has a corresponding shutdown script.

'init 6' calls a series of shutdown scripts (/ etc/rc0.d/K*) to gracefully shut down the system

Reboot' does not perform these procedures, and reboot is a kernel-level command that does not use shutdown scripts for applications. .

We should use init 6. 6 under normal circumstances.

Reboot-reboot performs a sync (1m) operation on the disks, and then a

Multi- user reboot is initiated. See init (1m) for details.

Init 6 Stop the operating system and reboot to the

State defined by the initdefault entry in

/ etc/inittab.

Use reboot when something goes wrong or when you force a restart.
