HP Virtual Connect Manager Command Line Interface for c-Class BladeSystem Version 3.30 User Guide

Command line 79
Item Description
Parameter
ServerID (required)
The ID of a server in the domain. The format of the server ID is
<EnclosureID:DeviceBay>. If the EnclosureID is not specified, the local
enclosure is used by default. Use "*" to reboot all servers in the domain. For a
multi-blade server, the ServerID must be that of the monarch bay. This is the ID
displayed by the
show server
command.
Options
Force
Forces a reboot operation without waiting for the operating system to shut down
gracefully. Only use this option as a last resort, because it can cause potential data
loss on the server.
ForceOnTimeout
Attempts a graceful shutdown, but if the server does not shut down within the
timeout period (60 seconds by default), then the server is forced to reboot.
Timeout
Specifies the timeout period (in seconds) to wait for the operation to complete (per
server). The default timeout is 120 seconds.

->reboot server 2
Reboots the server in device bay 2 of the local enclosure
