I am using Jenkins 1.424.1. I installed Safe Restart plugin which requires at least 1.421. So, it should work on my Jenkins. But when I confirm restarting Jenkins through this plugin, it throws below exception -

root cause
hudson.lifecycle.RestartNotSupportedException: Default Windows lifecycle does not support restart.
