<h3>
Can I reboot (power cycle) my nodes?
</h3>
<p>
Yes. Each of the PCs is independently power controlled. If your
node becomes wedged, or otherwise unresponsive, you can use the
<tt>
node_reboot
</tt>
command, as discussed in the
<a
href=
"tutorial/tutorial.php3#Wedged"
>
Emulab Tutorial.
</a>
</p>
<p>
The Sharks are also power controlled, but because of the limited
number of power ports available, the entire shelf of 8 sharks is
on a single controller. The
<tt>
node_reboot
</tt>
does its best to
cleanly reboot individual sharks, but if a single shark is
unresponsive, the entire shelf will be power cycled.
