Cant reboot on ssh ( remotely )

[Vib3]

When i booted to singlemode and rebooted:


"press any key to reboot"


But rebooting with ssh remotely, I cant press any key.

Ideas ?

What command did you use?

What command did you use?

#reboot

Reboot command does work on all our servers. It might be ACPI. Try setting hw.acpi.disable_on_poweroff is loader.conf. Some motherboard and BIOS do have problem. See http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/acpi-debug.html

Another option is use KVM over IP to reboot and manager box even if IPv[4/6] connectivity lost.

Does it do the same if you use (the more correct) shutdown -r now ??

@phoenix

I agree.

Use shutdown especially when administering a remote system.

Ok. I see your point. Its more user friendly, cos it sends messages. Now rebooting works fine.

Added also these ->


#cat /boot/loader.conf

hw.acpi.disable_on_poweroff="0"
hint.apic.0.disabled="1"
hw.acpi.disable_on_reboot="0"




Thx :)
