Ring indicate power-on is enabled by default on both serial port 1 (S1) and serial port 2 (S2). When ring
indicate power-on is enabled, call-in is disabled.

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 reinitialized. Restart must
follow a successful reboot.
– Number of reboot attempts - If the system fails to successfully complete the boot process, it
attempts to reboot the number of times specified. Entry values equal to or greater than 0 are valid.
Only successive failed reboot/restart attempts are counted.
– Use OS-Defined restart policy - This allows the service processor to react in the same way that the
operating system does to major system faults by reading the setting of the operating system
parameter Automatically Restart/Reboot After a System Crash. This parameter might already be
defined, depending on the operating system or its version or level. If the operating system automatic
restart setting is defined, 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 No.
