ASR-2 Password Security
The standard HP password features function differently during ASR-2 than during a
typical system startup.
During ASR-2, the system does not prompt for the power-on password, allowing
ASR-2 to restart the operating system or Diagnostics without user intervention.
To maintain system security:
1.
Set the server to boot in network server mode (an option in the server setup
utility). This option ensures that the server keyboard is locked until you enter the
keyboard password.
2.
Select an Administrator Password (an option in the server setup utility). During
attended ASR-2 (local or remote), you must enter this Administrator Password
before any modifications can be made to the server configuration.
ASR-2 Integrated Management Log Messages
The Integrated Management Log (IML) records memory errors, as well as
catastrophic hardware and software errors, that cause the system to fail. This
information helps you quickly identify and correct the problem, thus minimizing
downtime.
You can view the IML through Insight Manager 7 (or a previous version). The
Diagnostics utility either resolves the error or suggests corrective action in systems
that do not support event logs.
