One thing to think about is that the power draw will be substantial on reboot. 
If you've got power to burn, then no worries, but if you're close to your limit 
you should definitely stagger.

Angela,
I agree with everyone on the list about staggering the server reboots, however 
with that said 20 servers should not be an issue.  We have approx 200 Servers 
and we reboot our servers once a week.  I have about 25 servers that go down at 
the same time and I have never had an issue with that.

One thing I would suggest though is rebooting the Data Collector first then 
rebooting all of your other servers.

Hope that helps..

Chad

Hi

I have 20 servers that I reboot nightly.  I currently have a 5 minute interval 
between reboots.  Eg Server 1 reboots at 1:00AM, Server 2 at 1:05AM etc

Is there an issue if all servers are rebooted at the same time (Eg all servers 
reboot at 1:00AM).  Will there be any datastore issues on startup?

Thanks
Angela
