System Recovery
This chapter describes how to recover a system after it has failed to complete a reboot following a power

Prerequisites
Successful recovery from a failed reboot requires that you have access to the system via a console port, and
have an uncorrupted copy of the StarOS boot image file stored in flash memory on the management card, or
accessible from an external memory device.
Console Access
The boot recovery sequence can only be executed via a terminal connected to the serial console port on the
active management card. This connection can be through a terminal server that is accessible via a LAN
interface.
The boot recovery sequence can only be viewed via the Console port.
Boot Image
The boot recovery command line interface allows you to specify from which boot image you would like to
boot the system. If the system failed to reload following a software update, you can initiate a boot from a
previously stored image.
