Syntax Description

  • immediate: Reboot system immediately without notifying any running processes

force

Force the action without asking for user confirmation.

admin@nvos:~$ nv action reboot system mode halt Type [y] to halt the system. Type [N] to abort. WARNING: This operation will shut down the system. You will NOT be able to turn on the system remotely.   Do you want to continue? [y/N]

REST API

Related commands

nv action install platform firmware files

Notes

  • The prompt will be displayed only if there is unsaved configuration on the switch. Otherwise, the reboot will be performed as usual.

  • Using the halt flag will show the prompt unless force flag is passed.

  • Using the immediate flag will not trigger the firmware upgrade flow that part of normal reboot.

  • If the switch is in a fatal state, it will exit that state once it comes up.

  • `nv action reboot system` will still work as usual which is equivalent to `nv action reboot system mode cold`

Related Commands

nv set platform ps-redundancy policy

nv show system health

Notes

Supported only in systems that do not require all the power supplies to be connected.

nv set platform ps-redundancy policy {no-redundancy | ps-redundant | grid-redundant}

Sets system power redundancy policy. When the power redundancy policy requirements are not met a health issue is raised

Syntax Description

no-redundancy

No power supply is reserved. The redundancy is not enabled.

ps-redundant

One power supply unit is redundant to the rest. The system can work with one less power supply unit.

grid-redundant

The power supplies are split into two logical power supply grids, each grid contains the minimum power supplies required by the system. The power supplies on the left side of the switch are one grid, and the power supplies on the right switch are the other. The system can work if all the power supplies of one grid fail.

Default

grid-redundant
