Power up
Recovery attempt from SPE-down mode (requested by reboot
command, or automatically every 20 minutes)
Spontaneous interchange into an unrefreshed standby SPE
Effects System software (boot image) is reloaded, and all processes
are reinitialized
The disk, if present and healthy, is the default device from
which the software is loaded. Otherwise, the reload is taken
from tape
Before reboot, the system attempts to save the alarm and error
logs to the disk on the active SPE
After reboot, error and alarm logs are restored from the SPE
that is active coming out of the reboot. (Note that this means
that some error and alarm information may be lost if the last
save before the reboot save does not succeed or if an SPE
interchange takes place)
