Rebooting the System Manager virtual machine from the web console

Last Updated : Sep 20, 2022 |

About this task

When you start the reboot process, you cannot access the System Manager web console.

Important:

If you configured a NFS mount on System Manager for Session Manager Performance Data (perfdata) collection, then, if and when you reboot/boot System Manager virtual machine, you need to ensure that you manually re-mount the NFS store once the System Manager VM is up and you are able to log in to the VM through SSH. Failure to re-mount the NFS partition will result in the Session Manager perfdata to go, by default, into a folder which is in the root (/) partition of the System Manager file system. This might cause the partition to get full which in-turn might cause issues with the System Manager application.

Before you begin

Log on to the System Manager web console of the active server.

Procedure

  1. On the System Manager web console, click Services > Shutdown > Shutdown System Manager.
  2. In the Running and Pending Scheduled Jobs section, view the running and pending scheduled jobs.
  3. In the Active User Sessions section, view the active user sessions.
  4. In Initiate Reboot, click Reboot System Manager.

    System Manager displays the Reboot System Manager dialog box with the following message.

    The system initiates System Manager reboot after the grace period of 10 minutes, and stops all running jobs. Once you click Yes, you cannot abort this operation.

    The system notifies all the users who logged in before System Manager reboot is initiated.
