Configuration Guidelines; Rebooting Devices Immediately At The Cli; Scheduling A Device Reboot; Scheduling A Task - HP FlexFabric 7900 Series Configuration Manual

Schedule a reboot at the CLI, so the device automatically reboots at the specified time or after the
•
specified period of time.
Power off and then power on the device. This method might cause data loss, and is the
•
least-preferred method.
Using the CLI, you can reboot the device from a remote host.

Configuration guidelines

In standalone mode, the automatic reboot configuration is canceled if an active/standby
•
switchover occurs.
In IRF mode, the automatic reboot configuration is effective on all member devices. If a switchover
•
between the global active MPU and a global standby MPU occurs, the automatic reboot
configuration is canceled.
For data security, the device does not reboot while it is performing file operations.

Rebooting devices immediately at the CLI

Execute one of the following commands as appropriate in user view:
Task
Reboot a card or the entire device. (In
standalone mode.)
Reboot an IRF member device or all IRF

scheduler reboot delay command multiple times or configure both commands, the most recent
configuration takes effect.
