Service Manager Restart

Restart strategy for the service manager.

The service manager executes in a Java VM outside of NSO. The NcsMux initializes a number of sockets to NSO at startup. These are Maapi sockets and data provider sockets. NSO can choose to close any of these sockets whenever NSO requests the service manager to perform a task, and that task is not finished within the stipulated timeout. If that happens, the service manager must be restarted. The timeout(s) are controlled by several ncs.conf parameters found under /ncs-config/japi.
