NAME
reboot - reboot CPU after loss of file server connection
SYNOPSIS
write(cfd, "push reboot", 11); fd = open("#^/deltat", OWRITE); fprint(fd, "%d", delaytime);
DESCRIPTION
This is a combined device and stream module (see stream(3)). The bootstrap program boot(8) pushes the module onto the file server connec- tion of a CPU server. The system will then reboot automatically if the connection hangs up. The reboot may be postponed by delaytime mil- liseconds by writing the decimal value of delaytime to Conventionally, this is done by /rc/bin/cpurc (see cpurc(8)). This mechanism may be used to cause the machines at a particular site to come up in a fixed order, such as after a power failure.
