+.Os
+.Sh NAME
+.Nm rc.shutdown
+.Nd command script run at system shutdown
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+When the system is shut down using the
+.Xr reboot 8
+or
+.Xr halt 8
+commands,
+or when
+.Xr init 8
+is signalled to do so,
+or when a keyboard-requested halt is issued (if the architecture supports it),
+.Xr rc 8
+is invoked with the argument
+.Dq shutdown .
+This document details the actions taken by
+.Xr rc 8
+in such an instance.
+.Pp
+Firstly it saves random data for reseeding the kernel random number
+generator during the next boot.
+It then stops any daemons
+defined in the
+.Va pkg_scripts
+variable in
+.Xr rc.conf.local 8 ,
+as well as
+.Xr vmd 8 ,
+in that order,
+by passing them the
+.Cm stop
+argument.
+.Pp
+.Xr rc 8
+then runs
+.Nm .
+The administrator should place in this file
+any commands they wish to have executed during shutdown.
+.Pp
+Finally, all
+.Xr carp 4
+interfaces are brought down and then the system shuts down.
+.Pp
+If
+.Xr init 8
+is exiting single-user mode it will also run the first part of shutdown
+(saving random data),
+though not the latter.
