If the operator specifies a warm start, and CA Spool detects that no other members of the configuration are active, a total-configuration warm startis performed, and all in-process work is recovered as in a single system.
A warm start is performed when warm start is specified and other members of the configuration are active. The warm-starting system joins the active configuration and recovers only work in process on the system at the time of failure, if any. Restart for another system is performed when a system has failed and cannot be immediately warm-started.
The system operator enters the ESYS command on any active member of the configuration. In-process work on the specified system is recovered and made available for selection by other members of the configuration, subject to system affinity for restart as discussed in the following section.
