The -h option has worked fine for me. It does a halt / complete powerdown so you'll need someone
at the machine to power it back on.

On a regular Linux box, I wouldn't hesitate to the do the -r option --- its just that the 550's are
so new I wasn't sure if there was any kind of quirky issue on the restart that required something
different. I try not to assume anymore when it comes to Cobalts and prefer to err on the
side of caution. :)

Thanks,
