Automatic reconfiguration When a fault condition occurs, or after that fault is corrected and
the failed component is returned to service, the Endurance server
automatically reconfigures and, if needed, synchronizes the
components affected by the fault. This can include CPU
processing, including CPU memory; the server’s operating system
and associated applications; and any system data, including data
stored on mirrored devices. The redundancy of the components in
the Endurance server is transparently restored after most failures.
Local and remote management The Endurance server includes a complete server management
tool, the Endurance Manager. This tool has a GUI from which you
can monitor and configure your server. You can use Endurance
Manager locally or at a remote Windows client.
Event reporting Most Endurance-detected events and failures are reported and
logged into the Windows event log. This enables log entries to be
viewed locally or remotely using standard Windows procedures.
Endurance events are easily identified because they have a unique
identifier. Because standard event reporting is implemented, you
can integrate standard third-party alarm notification applications to
help manage your Endurance server.
Note: Other Endurance-detected events are displayed in Windows
blue screens, in pop-up windows, or in a window on the
Endurance Manager as they occur. For complete
documentation of Endurance messages, refer to the online
book HP Netserver AA Solution Messages.
Online repair You can repair and replace many hardware components while the
Endurance server remains online and operational.
