 Reboot all nodes in the system when they become idle using the
 \fBRebootProgram\fP as configured in SLURM's slurm.conf file.
 Accepts an option list of nodes to reboot. By default all nodes are rebooted.
+NOTE: This command does not prevent additional jobs from being scheduled on
+these nodes, so many jobs can be executed on the nodes prior to them being
+rebooted. You can explicitly drain the nodes in order to reboot nodes as soon
+as possible, but the nodes must also explicitly be returned to service after
+being rebooted. You can alternately create an advanced reservation with a flag
+of MAINT to prevent additional jobs from being initiated.
