Warm boot: not all the processes shut down. It does not take as long for a warm boot and many times users do not have to be off the system. Cold boot: Everything shuts down. There are shutdown scripts which shut down all the processes (so nothing is missed). All users must be off the system. Then, you run the startup script (check for errors). Test the system to make sure the changes you made took effect and there's no problems. Warm boot example: Configurable parameter was changed and the documentation states in order for it to take effect, a warm boot is required. In the documentation for that particular system, a warm boot's criteria will be listed. Cold boot example: Operating system upgrade on the server.
