Service Processor Reboot/Restart Policy Controls
The operating system’s automatic restart policy (see operating system documentation)
indicates the operating system response to a system crash. The service processor can
be instructed to refer to that policy by the Use OS-Defined Restart Policy setup menu.
If the operating system has no automatic restart policy, or if it is disabled, then the
service processor-restart policy can be controlled from the service processor menus.
Use the Enable Supplemental Restart Policy selection.
Use OS-Defined restart policy - The default setting is yes. This causes the service
processor to refer to the OS Automatic Restart Policy setting and take action (the same
action the operating system would take if it could have responded to the problem
causing the restart).
When this setting is no, or if the operating system did not set a policy, the service
processor refers to enable supplemental restart policy for its action.
Enable supplemental restart policy - The default setting is no. If set to yes, the
service processor restarts the server when the operating system loses control and
either:
The Use OS-Defined restart policy is set to No.
OR
The Use OS-Defined restart policy is set to Yes and the operating system has no
automatic restart policy.
