Error Recovery Initiating the Operating System Initiating the operating system is only supported on systems that use the System Configuration Utility. When you enable ASR-2 to restart the operating system and a critical error occurs, ASR-2 logs the error in the IML and restarts the server. The system then executes the normal restart process. IMPORTANT: When you enable ASR-2 to restart the operating system, Modem Dial-In Status, Network Status, and Modem Dial-Out Status are automatically disabled. In this mode you cannot access the server and the server cannot dial out to a remote workstation. During the recovery process, the ASR-2 feature tries (up to ten times) to restart the server. If the ASR-2 feature cannot restart the server within ten attempts, it logs a critical error in the IML, restarts the server in Diagnostics, and puts the modem into auto-answer mode. Your System Configuration Utility settings should resemble those listed in Table 5-3 when you enable ASR-2 to restart into the operating system: Table 5-3: System Configuration Utility Settings for Initiating the Operating System Option Serial interface Dial-in status Dial-out status Dial-out string Network status Network protocol Network controller Network host name Network card slot Network frame type Settings COM1 Disabled Disabled 555-1234 Disabled IPX HP HP_Server Slot # ETHERNET_II continued 5-14 HP Servers Troubleshooting Guide

HP Servers Troubleshooting Guide
Initiating the Operating System
Initiating the operating system is only supported on systems that use the System
Configuration Utility. When you enable ASR-2 to restart the operating system and a
critical error occurs, ASR-2 logs the error in the IML and restarts the server. The
system then executes the normal restart process.
IMPORTANT:
When you enable ASR-2 to restart the operating system, Modem Dial-In
Status, Network Status, and Modem Dial-Out Status are automatically disabled. In this mode
you cannot access the server and the server cannot dial out to a remote workstation.
During the recovery process, the ASR-2 feature tries (up to ten times) to restart the
server. If the ASR-2 feature cannot restart the server within ten attempts, it logs a
critical error in the IML, restarts the server in Diagnostics, and puts the modem into
auto-answer mode.
Your System Configuration Utility settings should resemble those listed in Table 5-3
when you enable ASR-2 to restart into the operating system:
