Description
Restarts the specified process on the switch.
Syntax Description

N/A.
Usage Guidelines
Use this command after you have stopped a process and you want to restart it. To stop a process, use
the
terminate process command.
You are unable to start a process that is already running. If you try to start a currently running process,
an error message similar to the following appears:
Error: Process telnetd already exists!
Depending on the software version running on your switch and the type of switch you have, you can
restart different or additional processes. To see which processes you can restart, enter
start process
followed by [Tab]. The switch displays a list of available processes.
To display the status of ExtremeWare XOS processes on the switch, including how many times a process
has been restarted, use the
show process {<name>} {detail} {description} {slot <slotid>}
command.
