When the reboot process completes successfully, the reboot attempts count is reset
to 0, and a restart begins. The term
restart, in the context of this service aid, is used
to describe 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 attempts.
v
Use the O/S Defined Restart Policy (1=Yes, 0=No)
When ’Use the O/S Defined Restart Policy’ is set to Yes, the system attempts to
reboot from a crash if the operating system has an enabled Defined Restart or
Reboot Policy.
When ’Use the O/S Defined Restart Policy’ is set to No, or the operating system
restart policy is undefined, then the restart policy is determined by the ’Supplemental
Restart Policy’.
v
Enable Supplemental Restart Policy (1=Yes, 0=No)
The ’Supplemental Restart Policy’, if enabled, is used when the O/S Defined Restart
Policy is undefined, or is set to False.
When surveillance detects operating system inactivity during restart, an enabled
’Supplemental 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 calls
can be valuable if the number of these events becomes excessive, thus signalling
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.
If the system was powered-on when the ac loss occurred, the system reboots when
power is restored. If the system was powered-off when the ac loss occurred, the
system remains off when power is restored.
