Most do not even have a grasp of why "re-boot and that should solve the

I assume you're being facetious.
What they don't understand is that the re-boot doesn't make the problem go away
permanently, in general.
The bug is still there!
I have always had issues with the alternate platform attitude.
Gates used to brag about how fast Windoze can restart.
PFCSK's brag about the same thing for *NIX.
We mainframe types brag about how long we can keep it up!

Nor do they have the slightest idea WHY we want it to stay up. In most
cases, the PFCSK's either don't understand or don't care why unplanned
outages are to be avoided whenever possible. And they wonder why the
"don't get no respect"!
