ABSTRACT:
A processor shelf controller monitors processor shelf status. On shutdown or reset request either initiated by a central controller or the processor shelf, the processor shelf controller provides at least a first timer that allows the operating processor shelf sufficient time to shutdown operating system processes. For graceful shutdowns, a second timer is provided to allow the operating processor shelf to clear all application related processes prior to start of the first timer.
