Difference between init 6 and reboot

"init 6" performs reboot in a clean and orderly manner,informing the svc.startd daemon of the change in runlevel,which subsequently achieves the appropriate milestone and ultimately executes the rc0 kill scripts. "reboot" performs an immediate system reboot,does not execute the rc0 kill scripts,simply unmounts file systems and reboots the System. It is not recommended,especially when you are rebooting after a live-upgrade of OS & any patch-updates ,etc. Booting and Shutting Down a System (Overview) https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26502_01/html/E28983/gktlr.html
