Reboot/Restart Policy Setup
This selection controls how the system tries to recover from a system crash.
Use this service aid to display and change the following settings for the following:
v
Boot Policy Setup.
v
Minimum Number of Reboot Attempts
v
Enter a number that is 0 or greater.
Note: A value of 0 indicates
″
do not attempt to reboot
″
to a crashed system.
This number is the maximum number of consecutive attempts allowed to reboot the
system. The term
reboot, when used in context of this service aid, describes the
system hardware being brought back up. Examples would be a system reset or
turning on the power on.
When the maximum number of reboot attempts is exceeded, the system calls out if
that function has been enabled.
When the reboot process completes successfully, the reboot-attempts count is reset
to 0, and a restart begins. The term
restart, when used in context of this service aid,
describes the operating system activation process. Restart always follows a
successful reboot.
When a restart fails, and a restart policy is enabled, the system attempts to reboot
for the maximum number of reboot attempts.
v
Enable Restart Policy (1=Yes, 0=No)
When the service processor detects operating system inactivity, an enabled
″
Restart
Policy
″
causes a system reset, and the reboot process begins.
v
Call-Out Before Restart (on/off)
When enabled,
″
Call-Out Before Restart
″
allows the system to call out (on a serial
port that is enabled for call out) when an operating system restart is initiated. Such
call-outs can be valuable if the number becomes excessive, which signals bigger
problems
v
Enable Unattended Start Mode (1=Yes, 0=No)
When enabled,
″
Unattended Start Mode
″
allows the system to recover from the loss
of ac power.
