Syntax:
[no] reload [[after <[[DD:]HH:]MM>] | [[at HH:MM[:SS] [MM/DD[/[YY]YY]]]]
| [[module <slot-id-range>]]]
When specified with the module parameter, initiates a reload of the module in the
specified slot or slots by turning the slot power off, then on again. A valid slot or
range of slots must be specified. The at and after parameters are not allowed with
the module option. The no version of the command is not valid with the module
option.
When the reload command is executed without any parameters, an immediate
switch reload occurs.
NOTE: This feature is not supported for HP One modules.
module: Powers the module on or off, forcing a software reload of the specified
module or modules.
Example 55 Reloading a specified module
HP Switch(config)# reload module C
The ‘reload module’ command will shutdown the specified
modules. Ports on specified modules will no longer pass
traffic. Any management traffic to the switch which
passes through the affected modules will be interrupted
(e.g. ssh, telnet, snmp). This command may take up to 2
minutes to power down all specified modules. Please check
the event log for current status of module power down,
power up cycle. Continue [y/n]?
Displaying reload information. Use the show reload command to display the reload information.
This can include:
• A scheduled, pending reload of the entire switch
• A statement that no reload is scheduled
• The time of the last reload of each module on the system
