rebooting vio client

Hi,

I would like to reboot vio client but I am not able to access vio client(I am not able to get putty) , I am able to get putty of vio server,

is there any command by using which from vio server I can reboot vio client?

It's not the best way to do it, but you can reboot it from the HMC.

Hi Padow,

Thanks for your timely help but I am not using HMC I am using blade server on which vio server is installed I am getting only putty of vio server and even I am not getting the vio server via browser.

I am able to login on vio server using putty, is that any command which will help me to reboot vio client.

Regards

Manoj

as on the hmc command line interface, you can use commands like chsysstate as user padmin, on the blade vio

for example:

chsysstate -o shutdown -r lpar --immed --restart

restarts the lpar immediate

-o can be osshutdown too, for a clean shutdown

unfortunately I can't find the mkvterm command, but it must be possible, since you can run it over the http interface too
