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-defined Power-Up

Default values. Plugs may be specified 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.
