Data
Setting
Description
Pager
status
Enabled
Indicates if the pager feature is enabled or disabled.
Pager
dial string
ATDT 555-
5555
Indicates the pager dial string and delay before the
pager message. Pagers typically use one of the
following formats:
Local pagers: ATDT 555-5555
Wide area pagers: ATDT 1-800-555-5555,1234567#
Pager
message
1234567#
Represents a unique number (maximum seven digits,
numeric only) that you must designate to identify the
server on your pager display. The ROM adds a three-
digit code to the front of this number. The first two
indicate the subsystem and the third indicates the
severity of the error that caused the alert. The # symbol
usually terminates the message. If no message is
required, delete the # symbol.
Pager
test
Select to
test
pager
setup
Use this to test the current pager settings. Press Enter to
dial the pager number, and the pager message (if
present) displays. You must configure the computer
before testing the pager and the Pager Status must be
set to Enabled. Do not test the pager if you are running
remotely and are using only one modem.
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. Be 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,
and 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-2 exceeds 10, the threshold
number of server restart retries. When this happens, ASR-
2 restarts the server into the Compaq Utilities and places
the modem in auto-answer mode.
