All,

Has this been finalized? I'm assuming that this needs to put in the 4.0
documentation. I will also need a copy of the final Functional Spec.

Thanks, Dennis

The "system reset" command already exists.  (Here she goes again, with
that ancient hardware...)  On cheetahs, it is used to reset a board or a
processor on a board.  One could stretch and say it resets a piece of
hardware, and thus is appropriate to reset a "node", although it would
seem more appropriate to use "-b" to reset a "blade".

"opposite" implies that 2-blade chassis at most.  What if we build a
4-blade in the future?  Terminology will need to be changed unless more
than 1 opposite blade makes sense.   Using "other" doesn't imply that
and a node/blade number may be added to the command option without
changing the keyword if the chassis does grow.

I do not think we should be using "reset" as a new command. It has the
connotations of "system config reset", which is not what this is for.
System reboot and system halt already exist, and they should have the
functionality added to reboot or halt different nodes. If we want to
keep it a diag command that's fine.

system reboot -n {<NODE> | opposite_blade}
system halt -n {<NODE> | opposite_blade }

I've created a functional spec for the Node Reset feature based on
feedback during the last few days.
Please note that for the GA release, it will not be completely
implemented due to time constraints.

Andy, Jonathan, BrianS, and I had a meeting to discuss the issues and we
made some difficult decisions with respect to naming and usage of the
command.  The details should all be captured in the following FS:

Thanks everyone,
Rendell
