      Configuring Scheduled Reboots

      This article will provide a walkthrough on configuring scheduled reboots for the bvoip phone system.

      Why Configure a Scheduled Reboot?

      Scheduled Reboots help the phone system work in an optimal fashion. Common symptoms of an overdue reboot being needing are: Phone system administration is acting strange or lagging. (Such as not saving or registering clicking of buttons.) You may also notice higher than normal CPU/RAM statistics on the Overview page of the phone system.

      For most phone systems, we recommend a weekly reboot schedule. If your system is large, you may require a bi-weekly reboot schedule.
