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 server 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 - In a full system partition, 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.
On a partitioned system, this setting is ignored.
