The ShutDownSystem method restarts the machine on which the server is running.

 HRESULT ShutDownSystem();

This method has no parameters.

Return Values: The method MUST return 0 or a nonerror HRESULT on success, or an implementation-specific nonzero error code on failure (as specified in [MS-ERREF]; see also section 2.2.1 for HRESULT values predefined by the Disk Management Remote Protocol).
