+                                will be programmed to automatically
+                                reboot the system if it is not
+                                contacted within the specified timeout
+                                interval. The system manager will
+                                ensure to contact it at least once in
+                                half the specified timeout
+                                interval. This feature requires a
+                                hardware watchdog device to be
+                                present, as it is commonly the case in
+                                embedded and server systems. Not all
+                                hardware watchdogs allow configuration
+                                of the reboot timeout, in which case
+                                the closest available timeout is
+                                picked. <varname>ShutdownWatchdogSec=</varname>
+                                may be used to configure the hardware
+                                watchdog when the system is asked to
+                                reboot. It works as a safety net to
+                                ensure that the reboot takes place
+                                even if a clean reboot attempt times
+                                out. By default

+                                to 10min. These settings have no
+                                effect if a hardware watchdog is not
