Using the Reset Switch

If your DNC is equipped with a Primary Processor XP 68020-7, you can use
the reset switch on the front of the SRU to reboot the system. Proceed as
follows:
(1)
(2)
(3)
Type in the command
:LOCAL:UUTILS:SOFTBOOT
(in capital letters, lowercase letters, or a mixture), and then press
ENTER.
The system prompts you to specify whether you want to quit the
program, reboot immediately, or reboot after a delay.
To reboot immediately, follow Step 6.
If you want to reboot immediately, type in 1 and press ENTER.
On your terminal screen, the system displays a message stating that it is
resetting all processors. Users' terminals beep, and display a message
stating that the system is rebooting at the administrator's request.
To reboot after a delay, follow Steps 7 and 8.
If you want to warn users in advance of the reboot, type in 2 and press
ENTER.
The system prompts you for the number of minutes it is to wait before
rebooting. You can specify a whole number in the range 1 to 10.
Type in a whole number in the range 1 to 10 and press ENTER.
The system acknowledges by displaying the message:
Wait n minutes (from hh:mm) for reboot
where n is the whole number you specified, and hh:mm is the current
time. Users' terminals beep and display a message stating that the
system will reboot in n minutes at the administrator's request.
When the specified delay has elapsed, users' terminals beep again, and
display a message stating that the system is rebooting at the
administrator's request.
Open the front door of the cabinet containing the Primary Processor
SRU.
Open the flap on the front of the SRU. (See Figure 3-1.)
Press the reset switch.
The system reboots.
