If you configure the server to boot into Compaq Utilities, it prepares for remote communications. You can remotely run Diagnostics software, the Inspect Utility, or the System Configuration Utility using a workstation running terminal emulation software, such as Compaq Insight Manager or PC Anywhere. Booting into the Operating System When you enable ASR-2 to restart into the operating system and a critical error occurs, ASR-2 logs the error in the Critical Error Log or IML and restarts the server. The system ROM pages the designated administrator, then executes the normal restart process. IMPORTANT: When you enable ASR-2 to restart into the operating system, Modem Dial-In Status, Network Status, and Modem Dial-Out Status are automatically disabled. In this mode, ASR-2 can page you if a critical error occurs, but you cannot access the server, and the server cannot dial out to a remote workstation. If the ASR-2 feature cannot restart the server within 10 attempts, it logs a critical error in the Critical Error Log or IML Log restarts the server into the Compaq Utilities, and puts the modem into auto-answer mode. Your System Configuration Utility setting should resemble the following when you enable ASR to restart into the operating system: I Serial interface COM1 I Dial-in status Disabled I Dial-out status Disabled I Dial-out string 555-1234 I Network status Disabled I Network protocol IPX

Description
Network IP

Enter the IP address for this server in standard dot notation.
NOTE:
This is not used if you select Custom for Network controller. You
must enter your IP address in the NET. CFG file that you load into the
system partition.
Network IP net

If you configure the server to boot into Compaq Utilities, it prepares for remote communications.
You can remotely run Diagnostics software, the Inspect Utility, or the System Configuration
Utility using a workstation running terminal emulation software, such as Compaq Insight
Manager or PC Anywhere.
Booting into the Operating System
When you enable ASR-2 to restart into the operating system and a critical error occurs, ASR-2
logs the error in the Critical Error Log or IML and restarts the server. The system ROM pages
the designated administrator, then executes the normal restart process.
IMPORTANT:
When you enable ASR-2 to restart into the operating system, Modem Dial-In
Status, Network Status, and Modem Dial-Out Status are automatically disabled. In this
mode, ASR-2 can page you if a critical error
occurs, but you cannot access the server, and
the server cannot dial out to a remote workstation.
If the ASR-2 feature cannot restart the server within 10 attempts, it logs a critical error in the
Critical Error Log or IML Log restarts the server into the Compaq Utilities, and puts the modem
into auto-answer mode.
Your System Configuration Utility setting should resemble the following when you enable ASR
to restart into the operating system:
■
Serial interface
COM1
■
Dial-in status
Disabled
■
Dial-out status
Disabled
■
Dial-out string
