How to run the tool
Automatic Server
Recovery (ASR)
ASR automatically restarts the server blade after a
catastrophic operating system failure.
With ASR, you have multiple recovery options:
•
Available Recovery provides software error
recovery and environmental recovery.
•
Unattended Recovery logs the error
information to the IML, resets the server blade,
and tries to restart the operating system.
Run RBSU and set ASR to
enable this tool.

hardware. If HP Diagnostics finds a hardware
failure, it isolates the replaceable part, if possible.
