Reboot Limits for Host UnlockΒΆ
During a host unlock, the host is rebooted. If the host fails to boot, StarlingX waits for a predetermined interval and then attempts to reboot the host again. For certain types of failure, the number of reboot attempts is limited to prevent the host from being rebooted indefinitely.
The following types of failure use reboot limitations. The failures are reported on the Host Inventory page of the Horizon Web interface, in the Status field for the host.

After the designated number of reboots, StarlingX leaves the host in an Unlocked, Disabled, and Failed state to allow troubleshooting. You can lock the host manually and then unlock it to attempt recovery.
