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 - 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.
