–Enable supplemental restart policy - The default setting is Yes.When set to
Yes in a full system partition, the service processor restarts the system when the
system loses control as detected by service processor surveillance, and either:
The Use OS-Defined restart policy is set to No.
OR
The Use OS-Defined restart policy is set to Yesand the operating system has
no automatic restart policy.
If set to Yes on a partitioned system, the service processor restarts the system
when the system loses control and it is detected by service processor
surveillance.
–Call-Out before restart (Enabled/Disabled) - If a restart is necessary due to a
system fault, and you are running a full system partition, you can enable the
service processor to call out and report the event. This option can be valuable if
the number of these events becomes excessive, which might signal a bigger
problem.
This setting is ignored on a partitioned system.
