What's the difference between Reboot and Restart? #147

Closed Kayz86 closed 3 years ago

Kayz86 commented 3 years ago

So i am trying to fix my own miner, after firmware update I have been off the blockchain for 2 days my device has stopped mining.

I restarted my miner through the dashboard with no effect, I now just want to know if I reboot what will this do? Will I have to reassert my location and height etc?

@Kayz86 The Restart action restarts the currently running application containers. Your application's running containers will be removed and recreated from scratch. The Reboot action will do the entire device, including the kernel, which will be rebooted as if there was a power cycle.

@salmanfarisvp we should clarify this on the dashboard with a dashboard guide as in #67

@salmanfarisvp

If I do a reboot (power cycle) it will also restart the current running application containers as well? Basically the reboot will also perform the 'restart' mode as you've described it.

@shawaj Sure, I'm working on that.

@Kayz86 Yes, correct.
