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 and restarts the
server. The system ROM pages the designated administrator, and 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.
During the recovery process, the ASR-2 feature tries to restart the server up to
10 times. If the ASR-2 feature cannot restart the server within 10 attempts, it
logs a critical error in the Critical Error 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

Dial-out string
555-1234
