Reboot is the process of bringing up the system hardware; for example, from a
system reset or power on. Restart is activating the operating system after the system
hardware is re-initialized. Restart must follow a successful reboot.
– Number of reboot attempts - If the server fails to successfully complete the boot
process, it attempts to reboot the number of times specified. Values equal to or
greater than 0 are valid. Only successive failed reboot/restart attempts are
counted.
– Use OS-Defined restart policy - Allows the service processor to react or not
react in the same way as the operating system to major system faults by reading
the setting of the operating system parameter Automatically Restart/Reboot
After a System Crash. This parameter may or may not be defined, depending on
the operating system or its version/level. If the operating system automatic restart
setting is defined, then it can be set to respond to a major fault by restarting or by
not restarting. See your operating system documentation for details on setting up
operating system automatic restarts. The default value is Yes.
