button. Verify the result of the request in the status bar on the Servers window. In addition, monitor the
Alarms and Events window for the “Server Repaired” event.
Repairing a server does not correct the underlying problem that caused the server's reported state to
change. Rather, it is a means for the administrator to notify the server that the underlying problem has
been corrected or dismissed. It is an “alarm reset”.
5.2.2. Reinitializing a Server
Reinitializing a server causes it to re-read all or part of its configuration metadata and reset its internal
representation of those values. In many cases reinitialization is all that is needed to cause a server to start
using a new configuration. In other cases it may be necessary to restart a server to cause it to use a new
configuration.
HPSS servers vary widely in their support of the reinitialization function. The following table lists the
behavior of each HPSS server when it is told to reinitialize.

These servers support full reinitialization. This
means that reinitialization is as effective as
restarting the server.
