hello vkansal.
To my knolewdge, when you do a kernel parameter in SAM, when the procedure is complete it asks you if you want to reboot the server now or at a later time.

hope this helps.

Hi Vkansal,

Follow these steps to change the kernel parameters from SAM.

SAM > Kernel Configuration > Configurable Paramaters > then select the parameter you wish to change, click on Actions > Modify Configurable Parameter and put the required value in the Formula/Value window. This window can contain either an absolute value or a formula. When you have changed all the required parameters, the click on Actions > Process New Kernel. SAM will build your new kernel and then ask you to click OK to move the kernel into place and reboot.

Hello again.
I just did a kernel modification and it did let me reboot later, this message screen appeared.



Note

The newly created kernel can be found in /stand/build/vmunix_test and
the configuration file used to create it can be found in
/stand/build/system.SAM. To make kernel changes take effect, you
must execute "/usr/sbin/kmupdate" and then reboot your system. We
also suggest you move the configuration file to /stand/system at the
same time.
