CHAPTER 9: Operation

9.2.1. Switching and Reboot Commands - Text Interface
These commands can be used to switch or reboot the Outlet Managed PDU’s
switched plugs, and can also be used to set plugs to the user-dened Power-Up
Default values. Plugs may be specied by name or number.
Notes:
• If a switching or reboot command is directed to a plug that is
already being switched or rebooted by a previous command, then
the new command will be placed in a queue until the plug is ready
to receive additional commands.
• If an asterisk appears in the "Status" column for any given plug,
this indicates that the plug is currently busy, processing a
previously issued command.
• Commands are not case sensitive. All commands are invoked by
pressing [Enter].
• When the Plug Control Screen is displayed by an account that
permits Administrator level command access, all switched outlets
will be displayed.
• When you have accessed command mode using an account
that permits Administrator or SuperUser level commands, then
switching and reboot commands can be applied to all plugs.
• When you have accessed command mode via a User level
account, switching and reboot commands can only be applied to
the plugs that are specifically allowed for that account.
• If command confirmation is enabled, the Outlet Managed PDU
will display the Status Screen after commands are successfully
completed.
• When switching and reboot operations are initiated, Boot/
Sequence Delay times will be applied as described in Section 5.7.
• When used in On/Off/Reboot command lines, plug names and
plug group names are not case sensitive.
