After all AM services are stopped, you need to sudo su to root to shut down the Hardware or VM.
sudo su -

root prompt#
# shutdown
The unit can be powered off if it is not already powered off.
Notes
[WT_Home]/server/rsaserv stop
e.g.
/opt/RSASecurity/RSAAuthenticationManagerWebtier/server
Or
/usr/RSASecurity/RSAAuthenticationManagerWebtier/server
Use same shutdown command as for AM appliance in Web Tier on Linux above in Resolution.
Stop Web Tier server - Windows.
Use Windows Services, scroll down to RSA Web Tier and use the 'Stop' command.
Use Windows Shutdown command.
Examples
- To shut down the appliance after a 30-second delay, run:
/sbin/shutdown -h -t 30
- To reboot the appliance immediately, run:
/sbin/shutdown -r now
