Text content

None.

model=diag288

Specifies the diag288 watchdog device.

Optional; specifies an action that is automatically performed when the watchdog timer expires:

reset: Default; immediately terminates the virtual server and restarts it afterwards.
poweroff: Immediately terminates the virtual server.
pause: Suspends the virtual server.
dump: Creates a virtual server dump on the host.
inject-nmi: Causes a restart interrupt for the virtual server including a dump on the virtual server, if it is configured respectively.
none: Does not perform any command.
shutdown: Tries to properly shut down the virtual server.
Since the usage of this action assumes that the virtual server is not responding, it is unlikely that the virtual server will respond to the shutdown command. It is recommended not to use this action.

None.
