3.6 Restarting the Appliance

To restart the Forge appliance software:

Some aspects of the appliance configuration do not take effect until the next boot. You must reboot the appliance to complete the rebuild process.

  1. Remove the PlateSpin Forge Installation CD.

  2. At the console prompt, enter the reboot command and press Enter.

    The shutdown sequence switches screens, hiding the shutdown process.

  3. Press Alt+F2 to return to the screen displaying the shutdown sequence.

    Forge is now rebuilt and is in the same state as it was when it left the factory.
