When most components are reset, a graceful shutdown is performed and a reboot is attempted. Before starting a reset of a node chassis, processing node cabinet, VMS, or VM node, you must shut down the appropriate applications to ensure data integrity.
If a component fails the reset, you can, as a last resort, perform a hard reset. A hard reset is an immediate reset of the node, VMS, or VM node. Because data corruption on the nodes can occur, you should only perform this command when all other attempts to reset have failed.

The following table lists the components that can be reset.

Component Result
Node Cabinet Attempts a graceful shutdown and reboot of the nodes in the cabinet.
CMIC Reboots the CMIC.
Node Chassis Attempts a graceful shutdown and reboot of the specific node.
VMS Attempts a graceful shutdown and reboot of the VMS. This also resets the VMs on the VMS.
VMs Attempts a graceful shutdown and restart of the VM.

InfiniBand Switch Resets the InfiniBand switch. The ports on the attached devices are unavailable during the reset.
