The Session Manager host server can be powered down safely and remotely, if needed, for hardware servicing. The shutdown/reboot feature also provides a safer last-chance restart instead of pressing the power button if the system becomes unresponsive. This feature is available for root, craft, and cust users.
If the Session Manager is shut down, onsite personnel must restart the system.
You can shut down or reboot the system in two ways:
Using the System Manager console
Using the command line interface of the Session Manager
Note:
Place Session Manager in the Deny New Service state and wait for all active calls to end before shutting down or rebooting the server. Active calls through the affected Session Manager will drop if the Session Manager remains inoperational for a long time. New calls will immediately use an alternate Session Manager, if available, once the affected Session Manager is placed in the Deny New Service state.
