# Windows Restart Provisioner
|
||
|
|
||
|
Type: `windows-restart`
|
||
|
|
||
|
The Windows restart provisioner initiates a reboot on a Windows machine
|
||
|
and waits for the machine to come back online.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The Windows provisioning process often requires multiple reboots, and this
|
||
|
provisioner helps to ease that process.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Basic Example
|
||
|
|
||
|
The example below is fully functional.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
{
|
||
|
"type": "windows-restart"
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Configuration Reference
|
||
|
|
||
|
The reference of available configuration options is listed below.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Optional parameters:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `restart_command` (string) - The command to execute to initiate the
|
||
|
restart. By default this is `shutdown /r /c "packer restart" /t 5 && net stop winrm`.
|
||
|
A key action of this is to stop WinRM so that Packer can detect it
|
||
|
is rebooting.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `restart_check_command` (string) - A command to execute to check if the
|
||
|
restart succeeded. This will be done in a loop.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `restart_timeout` (string) - The timeout to wait for the restart.
|
||
|
By default this is 5 minutes. Example value: "5m"
