| Zusammenfassung: | A computer system remote reboot facility is provided by resetting the central processing unit (108) with a local or host console (106) and by effecting a bus reset, by signals from a remote console (34) transmitted over an asynchronous line (104) connecting the remote console to the computer system manager (22) within the host (106). The computer system manager (22), preferably together with a keyboard controller (110), generate the reset signals. Effectively, cold booting is effected by the remote console simulating the effect of power cycling on the host and warm booting is achieved by emulation of "CONTROL-ALT-DEL" keystrokes. |
