Reboot Server

Reboot a server, optionally wait for it to return

If reboot_server_timeout > 0 then wait for server to start. This may fail if the server takes longer than reboot_server_wait seconds to shutdown all services, you can avoid this by increasing reboot_server_wait. The post-reboot check requires direct access to the server from localhost. If the server is behind a proxy you can run the check from a different host using reboot_server_delegate.

Role Variables

Optional variables:

• reboot_server_always: If True unconditionally reboot the server, otherwise only reboot if the kernel has changed, default False
• reboot_server_delegate: Run the reboot check from this node, default localhost.
• reboot_server_shutdown_delay: Wait for this time (seconds) before shutting down the server, default 5
• reboot_server_wait: Wait for this time (seconds) before checking whether the server has restarted, default 30
• reboot_server_timeout: Maximum time (seconds) to wait for a reboot, default 300
