Auto Alert
HP Support Anywhere’s Auto Alert feature allows you to monitor the operating
environment of an HP NetServer and sends notifications and alarms to a
designated workstation based on factory-defined error thresholds. Auto Alert
provides:
•
Alarm notification in an easy-to-use, intuitive ’stoplight’ interface
•
Problem identification, coupled with appropriate remedies
•
Server operational status: up/down
•
Centralized monitoring of multiple HP NetServers running either Novell
NetWare / IntranetWare, or Windows NT network operating systems
•
Notification of NetServer disk space capacity, network interface card (NIC)
status, SCSI adapter and device problems, and potential HP NetServer
SCSI hard disk problems
•
Multiple client support (Data from monitored HP NetServers can be
directed to more than one workstation.)
•
Automatic Server Restart (ASR) capabilities
