3-76 Diagnostic Tools Rapid Recovery Services Compaq servers provide rapid recovery services for diagnosing and recovering from errors. These tools are available for local and remote diagnosis and recovery. Rapid recovery means fast identification and resolution of complex faults. The Rapid Recovery Engine and Insight Management Agents notify the system administrator when a failure occurs, ensuring that the server experiences minimal downtime. You enable these features through the System Configuration Utility. These integrated server management features are: s Automatic Server Recovery-2 (ASR-2) s Server Health Logs (on servers not supporting Integrated Management Display Logs) s Storage Fault Recovery Tracking s Storage Automatic Reconstruction s Network Interface Fault Recovery Tracking s Memory Fault Recovery Tracking (with option upgrade kit) These are discussed in more detail on the Systems Reference Library CD (SRL). Automatic Server Recovery-2 Automatic Server Recovery-2 (ASR-2) lets the server restart automatically from the operating system or the Compaq Utilities. To use this feature, you must use the System Configuration Utility to install Compaq Utilities in the system partition. You can tell ASR-2 to restart your server after a critical hardware or software error occurs. Using the Compaq System Configuration Utility, configure the system for either automatic recovery or for attended local or remote access to diagnostic and configuration tools. You can also configure ASR-2 to page an administrator when the system restarts. ASR-2 depends on the application and driver that routinely notify the ASR-2 hardware of proper system operations. If the time between ASR-2 notifications exceeds the specified period, ASR-2 assumes a fault has occurred and initiates the recovery process. To configure ASR-2, follow this procedure: 1. Execute the System Configuration Utility. 2. Select View and Edit Details. 3. Set the software error recovery status to Enabled. 4. Set the software error recovery time-out.

Diagnostic Tools
Rapid Recovery Services
Compaq servers provide rapid recovery services for diagnosing and recovering from errors.
These tools are available for local and remote diagnosis and recovery.
Rapid recovery means fast identification and resolution of complex faults. The Rapid
Recovery Engine and Insight Management Agents notify the system administrator when a
failure occurs, ensuring that the server experiences minimal downtime. You enable these
features through the System Configuration Utility. These integrated server management
features are:
■
Automatic Server Recovery-2 (ASR-2)
■
Server Health Logs (on
servers not supporting Integrated Management
Display Logs)
■
Storage Fault Recovery Tracking
■
Storage Automatic Reconstruction
■
Network Interface Fault Recovery Tracking
■
Memory Fault Recovery Tracking (with option upgrade kit)
These are discussed in more detail on the Systems Reference Library CD (SRL).
Automatic Server Recovery-2
Automatic Server Recovery-2 (ASR-2) lets the server restart automatically from the
operating system or the Compaq Utilities. To use this feature, you must use the System
Configuration Utility to install Compaq Utilities in the system partition.
You can tell ASR-2 to restart your server after a critical hardware or software error occurs.
Using the Compaq System Configuration Utility, configure the system for either automatic
recovery or for attended local or remote access to diagnostic and configuration tools.
You can also configure ASR-2 to page an administrator when the system restarts. ASR-2
depends on the application and driver that routinely notify the ASR-2 hardware of proper
system operations. If the time between ASR-2 notifications exceeds the specified period,
ASR-2 assumes a fault has occurred and initiates the recovery process.
To configure ASR-2, follow this procedure:
1.
Execute the System Configuration Utility.
2.
Select
View and Edit Details
.
3.
Set the software error recovery status to Enabled.
4.
Set the software error recovery time-out.
