Additional Information
Reboot requests are recorded in the system log files, which you can view with the show

to be shut down are changed. You can view the process names with the show system
processes command (see show system processes).

Sample Output
- request system reboot
- request system reboot (at 2300)
- request system reboot (in 2 Hours)
- request system reboot (Immediately)
- request system reboot (at 1:20 AM)
request system reboot
user@host> request system reboot Reboot the system ? [yes,no] (no)
request system reboot (at 2300)
user@host> request system reboot at 2300 message “Maintenance time!” Reboot the system ? [yes,no] (no) yes shutdown: [pid 186] *** System shutdown message from root@berry.network.net *** System going down at 23:00
request system reboot (in 2 Hours)
The following example, which assumes that the time is 5 PM (17:00), illustrates three different ways to request the system to reboot in two hours:
user@host> request system reboot at +120 user@host> request system reboot in 120 user@host> request system reboot at 19:00
request system reboot (Immediately)
user@host> request system reboot at now
request system reboot (at 1:20 AM)
To reboot the system at 1:20 AM, enter the following command. Because 1:20 AM is the next day, you must specify the absolute time.
user@host> request system reboot at 06060120 request system reboot at 120 Reboot the system at 120? [yes,no] (no) yes
