Restarting the ISE
Restarting the ISE causes it to perform the following actions:
• Complete all in-progress I/O commands from all hosts
• Flush all data from cache
• Prepare internal processes to gracefully shut down
• Shut down both MRCs
• Automatically restart both MRCs
Initialization and all configuration settings are retained. Connection to the ISE through the CLI is
terminated. When the restart is complete, the ISE again allows connection from a remote con-
sole.
The following table describes the difference between restarting and shutting down the ISE.
To restart the ISE from the CLI:
1. Type
restart
.
2. Press
y
or
n
in response to the question
System restart requested. Are you sure?
.
3. In some conditions, the system may reject the restart command and display an informational
message explaining the rejection. To override the rejection, re-issue the command with the
--force
option in the command line (
restart --force
).
