reload
Synopsis: The reload command reboots the chassis.
Syntax: reload
Command Modes: Privileged-execute mode.
Privilege Level: General read-write user.
Usage Guidelines: At stages of chassis and interface setup you need to reinitialize chassis
firmware or restore interface card configurations. You may power-cycle by unplugging and
replugging the electrical cord to the system chassis but this approach is not recommended. The
reload command is recommended because it allows the chassis to close files and prepare for
shutdown. reload brings down the entire system chassis and restarts all the cards in the chassis.
The system prompts for you to verify the reload. If you had not already saved configuration
changes, and the system detects the changes, it prompts you to save. If you enter yes, the new
configuration is stored in startup-config. You may optionally save the configuration to an alternate
file by entering the file name, followed by a carriage-return.
The system reinitializes itself and then loads the system-image and the startup-config file. Wait
a few minutes and attempt to log onto the chassis.
Examples:
HP-IB# reload
System configuration has been modified. Save?
[yes(default)/no/*.cfg] yes
Proceed with reload? [confirm]
HP-IB#
Connection to host lost.
#
Defaults: This command has no defaults.

shutdown
Synopsis: The shutdown command enables or disables a specific interface card in the system
chassis.
The shutdown command enables or disables the Ethernet Management port.
The shutdown command enables or disables the Management-InfiniBand port.
Syntax: shutdown
no shutdown
Command Modes: Configuration Card (config-card) mode.
Privilege Level: Unrestricted or card-specific read-write user.
Usage Guidelines: Enabling/Disabling a card:
A card must be enabled, or brought up, before it can be configured. Enter this command after
the card type command to bring up each card in the chassis. You may enter this command at
any time to disable a card while in the current configuration mode.
When an interface card is placed out-of-service, the power is turned off for that card and it no
longer processes packets. The system-image resident on the card cannot be deleted or updated
when the card is down. Unless you have cause to do otherwise, make sure all the expansion
modules and switch cluster connections are up before attempting to update the system-image.
