Cgiminer Api has a restart command, but it require configuration to allow the priviledged command, and I doubt it restart the entire machine.
Instead, I opt to write code to SSH into the machine and issue a reboot command. The downside is root/admin username and password is required.
I use Paramiko for Python SSH support.
import paramikodef reboot(ip): ssh = paramiko.SSHClient() # paramiko.ssh_exception.SSHException: Server '192.168.1.1' not found in known_hosts ssh.set_missing_host_key_policy(paramiko.AutoAddPolicy()) ssh.connect(ip, username='root', password='password') # ssh_stdin, ssh_stdout, ssh_stderr = ssh.exec_command("ls -a") ssh_stdin, ssh_stdout, ssh_stderr = ssh.exec_command("/sbin/reboot") # print ssh_stdin.readlines() print ssh_stdout.readlines() print ssh_stderr.readlines()
