Summary

You may need to reboot a device to perform actions or to refresh the device. These actions include software update procedures and power supply replacement procedures. When you reboot a system through the SMS, you perform a warm boot. The device shuts down and restarts immediately. This type of reboot is not a power cycle. When you perform a power cycle, you disconnect the power from the device and wait ten (10) seconds prior to turning the device on.
