Scheduling a reboot of one firewall in a HA setup

Hi,

I know that I can schedule a reboot of a firewall via CLI but in a HA configuration is it possible to schedule a reboot of only one of the pair or would both of the firewalls reboot at the scheduled time (or only the 'active' firewall)?

I am having an issue with an overseas HA pair whereby the secondary firewall fails to bring up the VPNs; I've possibly resolved the issue but I want to force a failover to the secondary to test it, but just incase it doesn't work I want to force a failover back to the primary by forcing a reboot of the secondary after 5 mins.

    When you SSH on and schedule a reboot, only the device which you have logged in to, will be rebooted.
