Diagnostic Tools 3-59
Attended Recovery
For attended recovery, ASR-2 performs the following actions:
Logs the error information to the IML
Resets the server
Pages you (if a modem is present and you selected Paging)
Starts Compaq utilities from the hard drive
Enables remote access
During system configuration, these utilities are placed on the system utilities partition of the
hard drive.
If you have configured for dial-in access and have a modem with an auto-answer feature
installed, you can dial in and remotely diagnose or reconfigure the server.
If you have configured the Compaq utilities for network access, you can access the utilities over
the network. You can use Compaq Insight Manager for dial-in or network access.
Hardware Requirements
To use this level of ASR-2 over a modem, you need the following:
A non-PCI Compaq or optional Hayes modem
System Configuration Utility and Diagnostics Utility installed on the system partition of
the hard drive
ASR-2 configured to load Compaq utilities after restart
You can also run Compaq utilities remotely over an IPX or IP network using the Network
feature:
To use Compaq utilities on an IPX network, you must have Compaq Insight Manager 2.0
or later or an NVT (Novell Virtual Terminal) Terminal Emulator with VT100 or ANSI
terminal capabilities.
To use Compaq utilities on an IP network, you must have Compaq Insight Manager 2.10
or later or a Telnet Terminal Emulator with VT100 or ANSI capabilities.
You can configure ASR-2 to restart the server into Compaq utilities to diagnose the critical error
or to start the operating system to return the server to operational status as rapidly as possible.
When you enable ASR-2 to start Compaq utilities, the server restarts after a critical error and
loads Compaq utilities from the system partition on the hard drive.
If you are notified that ASR-2 restarted the server and you have restarted to Compaq utilities,
use the Inspect Utility or Compaq Insight Manager to view the critical error in the Critical Error
Log. Run Diagnostics to diagnose and resolve the problem.
When you enable ASR-2 to start the operating system, the server tries to start from the primary
partition. In this mode, ASR-2 can page you if a critical error occurs, but you cannot access
Compaq utilities.
