Setting the System Recovery Level

You can configure the system to automatically reboot after a software task exception, using the
following command:

config sys-recovery-level [none | critical | all]

where:

The default setting is

none

.

NOTE

Extreme Networks recommends that you set the system recovery level to

critical

ExtremeWare to log an error to the syslog and automatically reboot the system after a critical exception.
