2. asrx – (Automatic Site behavior Reporter for uniX)
ASRX (Automatic Site behavior Reporter for uniX) is a software tool that provides metrics
on the dependability of Unix machines.
2.1 Installation
The package BX11.Dt is mandatory for all machines with a Graphic system console.
The package bos.sysmgt.serv_aid (errpt command) is mandatory at installation
(prerequisite).
If ’WatchWare’ is installed, ASRX is automatically installed, configured, and started.
2.2 Restrictions and Limitations
In order to record the cause of a system stop, an ASRX menu appears after a reboot. This
menu waits 15 minutes for an answer.
The processor number given in the reports has no relationship with its logical or physical
number; it is definitely not the slot number in which they are plugged.
Only one “asrx_rpt” command must be used at the same time, otherwise unpredictable
results may be produced.
PSDs may be lost (not sent) if RSF dial–out is disabled.
asrx_rpt must be used with LANG set to “En_US” or “en_US”.
