Automatic Server Recovery
ASR is a feature that causes the system to restart when a catastrophic operating system error occurs, such as
a blue screen, ABEND (does not apply to HP ProLiant DL980 Servers), or panic. A system fail-safe timer, the
ASR timer, starts when the System Management driver, also known as the Health Driver, is loaded. When the
operating system is functioning properly, the system periodically resets the timer. However, when the
operating system fails, the timer expires and restarts the server.
ASR increases server availability by restarting the server within a specified time after a system hang. At the
same time, the HP SIM console notifies you by sending a message to a designated pager number that ASR
has restarted the system. You can disable ASR from the System Management Homepage or through RBSU.
ROMPaq utility
The ROMPaq utility enables you to upgrade the system firmware (BIOS). To upgrade the firmware, insert a
ROMPaq USB Key into an available USB port and boot the system. In addition to ROMPaq, Online Flash
Components for Windows and Linux operating systems are available for updating the system firmware.
The ROMPaq utility checks the system and provides a choice (if more than one exists) of available firmware
revisions.

Integrated Lights-Out technology
The iLO subsystem is a standard component of selected ProLiant servers that provides server health and
remote server manageability. The iLO subsystem includes an intelligent microprocessor, secure memory, and
a dedicated network interface. This design makes iLO independent of the host server and its operating
system.
In addition to remote management features, iLO is also responsible for managing the health of the ProLiant
server. The intelligence of iLO manages the Sea of Sensors thermal control, directs power management
functions, and monitors the health of server components.
The iLO subsystem provides secure remote access from any authorized network client. The enhancements to
iLO enable customers to get work done faster by providing turbo-charged remote access performance, a
streamlined user experience, and enhanced standards support.
Using iLO, you can do the following:
•
Access a high-performance and secure Remote Console to the server from anywhere in the world.
•
Use the shared iLO Remote Console to collaborate with up to six server administrators.
•
Remotely mount high-performance Virtual Media devices to the server.
•
Securely and remotely control the power state of the managed server.
•
Send alerts from iLO regardless of the state of the host server.
•
Access advanced troubleshooting features through the iLO interface.
