# Configure Auto-reboot

Configure hosts to be rebooted automatically if the following occurs:

* **EC2 Status Check** - Applicable for Docker Native and EKS Nodes. The Host is rebooted in the specified interval when a `StatusCheck` fault is identified.
* **Kubernetes (K8s) Nodes are disconnected:** Applicable for EKS Nodes only. The Host is rebooted in the specified interval when a `Host Disconnected` fault is identified.

You can configure host Auto Reboot features for a particular Tenant and for a Host.

{% hint style="warning" %}
When you configure an Auto Reboot feature for both Tenant *and* Host, the Host level configuration takes precedence over the configuration at the Tenant level.
{% endhint %}
