Booting into Compaq Utilities
When you enable ASR-2 to start into Compaq Utilities and a critical error
occurs, the operating-system-specific Health Driver logs the error information
in the Critical Error Log and the ASR-2 feature restarts the server. When the
system reinitializes, the system pages the designated administrator (if
enabled), and starts Compaq Utilities from the hard drive.
If Dial-In status is enabled, the modem is placed in auto-answer mode. If you
enable Dial-Out status, you are automatically enabled for Dial-In.
If Network Status is enabled, the appropriate network support software is
loaded, depending on the network protocol, IP or IPX. This allows remote
access via the network.
IMPORTANT: Compaq Utilities are loaded from a specially created system
partition on the hard drive. This partition was configured during server configuration.
You can access the server and view the Server Health Logs remotely by
modem, in-band over the network, or directly from the server. For modem
access, you must have either Compaq Insight Manager 2.0 or above or have a
VT100 or ANSI terminal type device. You may use a standard CRT with
VT100 or ANSI emulation capability, or you may use a PC with a VT100 or
ANSI terminal emulation package. The communication parameters must be
set for 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit.
