Server Health Logs In some servers, Server Health Logs are replaced by the Integrated Management Log, if it is supported. See "Integrated Management Display" in this chapter for more information. The Server Health Logs contain information to help identify and correct any server failures and correlate hardware changes with server failure. The Server Health Logs are stored in nonvolatile RAM and consist of the Critical Error Log and the Revision History Table. If errors occur, information about the errors is automatically stored in the Critical Error Log. Whenever boards or components (that support revision tracking) are updated to a new revision, the Revision History Table will be updated.

ASR-2 Security
The standard Compaq password features function differently during ASR-2 than during a
typical system startup.
During ASR-2, the system does not prompt for the Power-On Password. This allows the
ASR-2 to restart the operating system or Compaq Utilities without user intervention.
To maintain system security, set the server to boot in Network Server Mode (an option in
the System Configuration Utility). This option ensures that the server keyboard is locked
until you enter the Keyboard Password.
Select an Administrator Password (an option in the System Configuration Utility). During
attended ASR-2 (local or remote), you must enter this Administrator Password before any
modifications can be made to the server configuration.
Server Health Logs
In some servers, Server Health Logs are replaced by the Integrated Management Log, if it
is supported. See “Integrated Management Display” in this chapter for more information.
The Server Health Logs contain information to help identify and correct any server failures
and correlate hardware changes with server failure. The Server Health Logs are stored in
nonvolatile RAM and consist of the Critical Error Log and the Revision History Table.
If errors occur, information about the errors is automatically stored in the Critical Error
Log.
Whenever boards or components (that support revision tracking) are updated to a new
revision, the Revision History Table will be updated.
