This period of time is called the restrike time. Restrike times for traditional probe-start MH lamps can take 15 minutes or longer, but restrike times for pulse-start MH lamps are generally much shorter (see Figure 4). According to manufacturers' literature, restrike times for pulse-start MH lamps can be more than twice as fast as for probe-start MH lamps.
Overview. Unix (officially UNIX) is a registered trademark of The Open Group that refers to a family of computer operating systems and tools conforming to The Open Group Base Specification, Issue 7 (also known as POSIX.1-2008 or IEEE Std 1003.1 - 2008).
In Unix, an environment variable that is changed in a script or compiled program will only affect that process and possibly child processes. The parent process and any unrelated processes will not be affected.
