Triggering a Full Restart or Service-Level Restart
Call InitiateRackRestartAsync with the input parameter RackRestartLevel.FullRestart to trigger a full restart, or RackRestartLevel.ServiceLevelRestart to trigger a service-level restart. The InitiateRackRestartAsync function internally calls IAteCoreSession.Dispose so you do not need to explicitly call the Dispose function.
Restarting the RCU Service
IAteCoreSession ateCoreSession;
try
{
// To create an object of IAteCoreSession.
ateCoreSession = await AteCoreSession.CreateAteCoreSessionAsync(hostname, password);
// Perform a full restart
await ateCoreSession.InitiateRackRestartAsync(RackRestartLevel. ServiceLevelRestart); // Dispose ateCoreSession will be handled in InitiateRackRestartAsync
Stopwatch stopWatch = new Stopwatch();
stopWatch.Start();
while (true)
{
try
{
ateCoreSession = await AteCoreSession.CreateAteCoreSessionAsync(hostname, password);
break;
}
catch
{
// Timeout after 20 seconds.
if (stopWatch.ElapsedMilliseconds > 20* 1000)
{
throw new TimeoutException();
}
}
}
stopWatch.Stop();
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine(ex.Message); //Print the exception message.
}
finally
{
if (ateCoreSession != null)
{
// To close the session.
ateCoreSession.Dispose();
}
}
