Description
Serial interface
COM1
Select the communications port for the modem used
by the pager and the remote ASR-2 functions. The
options are COM1 and COM2.
Dial-in status
Enabled
Set Dial In Status to Enabled and make sure the
Reset Boot option is set to Boot Compaq Utilities.
When the system starts because of an ASR reset, it
starts to the Compaq Utilities, sets the Management
Modem to auto-answer mode, then waits for the
administrator to dial in and run the Compaq Utilities.
You automatically disable this option when you
configure the software error recovery start option to
Boot Operating System. When ASR pages you, you
cannot dial in unless ASR exceeds the threshold
number of server restart retries (10). When this
happens, ASR restarts the server into the Compaq
Utilities and places the modem in auto-answer
mode.
