4.2.9 OS restart failure check

An "OS restart failure check" task occurs when the operating system has failed to restart.

The operating system is restarted when a restart is required after the patch has been applied and when Yes has been specified for Reboot after application in the application settings. If No is specified for Reboot after application in the application settings, the operating system will not be restarted even if the operating system needs to be restarted after the patch is applied. Also, if there is no need to restart the operating system after the patch is applied, the operating system will not be restarted, regardless of the settings for Reboot after application.

If an "OS restart failure check" task occurs, a log will be output to the Details field in the OS restart failure check tab window, indicating the type of error that has occurred.

Refer to the "returnCode" information. The following table shows the expected values and their meaning:
