Resetting the Server
It is not necessary to power the server off and on to reset the server. A reset maintains host
power but causes the processors to reinitialize. In the process, some register information
is retained. This is important in case of a system host panic, as error information might be
available upon system recovery. Use the procedures in one of the following sections to reset the
server.
Caution - Possible Data Loss. Resetting the server will cause any unsaved data on the server to
be lost.
