reboot
Reboots either one control processor (CP) or the entire system.
Synopsis
reboot
Availability
admin
Description
Use this command to immediately reboot a CP in a director or an entire switch. The command line session
is closed.
When this command is issued on a single-CP system, all switches in the system are entirely shut down and
all Fibre Channel ports become inactive until the system restarts. When this command is issued on the
active CP of a dual-CP system, the active CP reboots, the standby CP takes over as the active CP, and all
Fibre Channel ports become inactive until the new active CP reinitializes these ports.
If this switch is part of a fabric, reboot the switch so that the remaining switchesare reconfigured.
Operands
none
Examples
To reboot the CP:
switch:admin> reboot
