rebootimm command

Use the rebootimm command to restart the integrated management module (IMM). This command is for IMM-based servers only.

This command is useful because you must restart the IMM after making changes to IMM settings. This command takes approximately 4 minutes to complete.

Syntax

The syntax of the rebootimm command is
asu rebootimm [-nx] [connect_options] [-a]

Notes

  1. If the optional -nx parameter is specified, the ASU performs the operation for node x, where x is the selected node in a multi-node system. Node x can be a number from 1 through 8. If the -nx parameter is not specified, the operation is performed on the primary node (node 1).
  2. The connect options are defined for IMM-based servers only. The --host ip_address, --user user_id, and --password password connect options are all required if you connect remotely to the IMM. The default user and password will not support an out-of-band connection now. The --mtsn, --net, --user, and --password options can be used to connect to IMM-based servers if the server running ASU and the target IMM-based servers are in one LAN. The --user user_id and --password password connect options are not required if you are using the local KCS interface.
  3. If the option a parameter is specified, ASU restarts all nodes in the same partition. ASU does not support restarting multiple partitions.
