No, meaning, if a system is unresponsive for 300 seconds, action will be taken. watchdogd will not prevent proper reboots, panics or power failures. Bad wording on my part. What you said is what I meant, and I assume the default action is to reboot the system? Panic, or overheating. Check

If -e cmd is not specified, the daemon will perform a trivial file system check instead. So -e has to be provided for the system to reboot? That doesn't seem to jive with our experience. When we first enabled the watchdog, we just went with the defaults--no -e command. The default for the

Which watchdog are you using? We are using the default FreeBSD 7.0 watchdog. We've added the line watchdogd_enable=yes to rc.conf to enable it and have modified /etc/rc.d/watchdogd to pass -t 300 to the daemon instead of the default 16. ___
