Notes
The [Machine] Shutdown/Restart module can be used to control either the local server or a member machine that is part of the Active Directory domain. Periodically restarting a machine can help overall system performance if certain installed applications have a tendancy to grab large amounts of system resources and never releases them, even if it is not using them any longer.
