System Configuration
Auto Recovery
This section provides Automatic Server Recovery (ASR) configuration information, tells you when
the server was last reset, and allows you to modify pager settings. You can modify the Status, ASR
Reset Boot Option, Pager Status, Pager Dial String, and Pager Message settings.
NOTE: In order to modify ASR settings you must set read/write access to SNMP community
strings. For more information, see the HP Insight Manager User Guide.
The following items display on this window:
General Information
• ASR Condition—This value specifies the overall condition of the ASR. The following values
are possible:
◦ Other—ASR is not supported on server.
◦ OK—Last reboot was not an ASR reboot.
◦ Degraded—Last reboot was an ASR reboot but the ASR reset count less than the ASR
reset limit.
◦ Failed—ASR reset count is greater than or equal to the ASR reset limit.
• Status—Displays the status of ASR. The following values are possible:
Enabled—ASR is enabled for this server.◦
◦ Disabled—ASR is disabled for this server. To change this status, run the System
Configuration Utility or perform a set on this item.
◦ Not Available—ASR is not available for this server or your driver is not loaded. ASR is
available only on operating systems using the ASR software support provided by
HP/Compaq.
◦ Unknown—You may need to upgrade your support software and/or Server Agent(s). The
Server Agent cannot determine the status.
• Last Reset—Displays how the last server reset was performed. The following values are possible:
ASR—The last reset was performed by ASR. Check the Critical Error Log to determine
what may have caused ASR.
◦
◦ ASR-Cleared—The last reset was performed by ASR. The degraded condition caused by
the ASR reset has been cleared. Degraded ASR conditions can be cleared by selecting
the Clear ASR button on the Auto Server Recovery window.
◦ Manual—The last reset was performed manually.
◦ Unknown—You may need to upgrade your driver software and/or Server Agents. The
Server Agent cannot determine the status of the device. If the last reset was an ASR reset,
the ASR condition is degraded.
If the last reset was an ASR reset, the ASR condition is degraded.
• Timeout—Displays how many minutes ASR waits before initiating a recovery process. ASR
depends on the software support to routinely notify the ASR hardware that the server is
operating properly.
To change the timeout setting, use the System Configuration Utility. The time you specify for
this field should be a prudent period of time before resetting the system and activating the
124 Agent information
