The device drivers for IBM OS/2 can be obtained from the SmartStart and
Support Software CD by using the Diskette Builder utility.
The Remote Insight Lights-Out Edition driver for OS/2 is CPQRIB.SYS.Ifthe
Compaq Wellness driver for OS/2, CPQHLTH.SYS, is loaded, then
CPQRIB.SYS is notified of any critical events, and the driver updates its copy
of the critical error log. CPQRIB.SYS also updates its critical error log every
time the board is reset.
If the Compaq BIOS32 support driver for OS/2, CPQB32.SYS, is loaded, then
CPQRIB.SYS is notified of any updates to the Integrated Management

updates its copy of the IML every time the board is reset.
