Restart a Device
When a device fault occurs, you can choose to restart the device according to the actual situation so as to eliminate the fault. The device restart modes include cold restart and hot restart. In a cold restart, the user can directly power off the device and power on the device again. In a hot restart, the user restarts the device by using a restart command. During the hot restart process, the device is not powered off.
