Reboot based on boottime

[nyr3188]

I know that sensor.firewall_system_boottime returns a date and time. Can I trigger a reboot if the current date and time is greater than 30 days away from the boottime?

I would like reboot entity too.

Rebooting pfSense in specific time pattern can be done using Cron in pfSense.

system_reboot and system_halt are services you can invoke on any entity.

Hi, great, thank you.

Hi, calling service to reboot pfSense ends in script error, but pfSense rebooted:

Result:
params:
domain: pfsense
service: system_reboot
service_data:
entity_id: binary_sensor.pfsense_localdomain_pending_notices_present
target: {}
running_script: false

If I recall correctly that’s somewhat expected as the webserver shuts down immediately. I would have to do some testing again but I wouldn’t worry about it too much.

Ok, but there is little issue that automation script stops due to this error.
