    No.  However, you can schedule with Airwave

    You could use Cattools and it allows you to schedule a certain task to the controller like automatic backups and for your case you could use it to do an automatic reload of the controller

    Hi

     

    Aruba should implement both the "reload at" and "reload in" command.

    The scheduled "reload at" would be nice of you wan't to reboot at night. I understand this could be done in Airwave, but not all our customers have AirWave.

    The "reload in" would be useful for when devices are at remote locations and you need to do changes that might break your connection or whatever.

    Just instruct the controller to "reload in 5 minutes", if all goes well, you just abort. If you loose connection, then the system will come back up after the reboot as the config is not saved.

    Agreed. A "Reload in X" would be really useful at times.

    No. However, you can schedule in on a linux box with "at" or "cron" in conjunctions with a controller rest api url :

    sessionid=`curl -s --insecure -c "$0-$$-cookie" -d "username=$adminuser&password=$password" https://${controller}:4343/v1/api/login | jq -r '._global_result.UIDARUBA' `

    curl -s --insecure -b "$0-$$-cookie" -X POST -i "https://${controller}/v1/configuration/object/reload?UIDARUBA=$sessionid"
