Initializing Compaq Utilities
When you enable ASR-2 to start into Compaq Utilities and a critical error occurs, the operating
system-specific Health Driver logs the error information into the Critical Error Log or the IML
and the ASR-2 feature restarts the server. When the system reinitializes, the system pages the
designated administrator (if enabled), and starts Compaq Utilities from the hard drive.
If Dial-In status is enabled, the modem is placed in auto-answer mode. If you enable Dial-Out
status, you are automatically enabled for Dial-In.
If Network Status is enabled, the appropriate network support software is loaded, depending on
the network protocol, IP or IPX. Having the appropriate network software allows remote access
via the network.
IMPORTANT: Compaq Utilities are loaded from a specially created system partition on the hard drive.
This partition was configured during server configuration.
You can access the server and view the Server Health Logs (in servers not supporting the IML)
remotely by modem, in-band over the network, or directly from the server. For modem access,
you must have either Compaq Insight Manager 2.0 or above, or have a VT100 or ANSI terminal
type device. You may use a standard CRT with VT100 or ANSI emulation capability, or you
may use a PC with a VT100 or ANSI terminal emulation package. The communication
parameters must be set for 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit.
You can also enable ASR-2 to allow network access using the Network Status feature in the
System Configuration Utility. You must have either Compaq Insight Manager 2.0 or greater or a
Novell Virtual Terminal (NVT) emulator on an IPX network to use this feature. You must also
have System Configuration Utility version 2.24 or later. For IP access, you must have Compaq
Insight Manager 2.10 or later, or a Telnet Terminal emulator to use this feature. You also must
have version System Configuration Utility 2.24 or later.
The System Configuration Utility settings should resemble the settings in Table 3-21 when you
enable ASR-2 to start into Compaq Utilities.

Wide area pagers: ATDT 1-800-555-5555,1234567#
Pager message 1234567# Represents a unique number (maximum seven digits, numeric only) that
you must designate to identify the server on the pager display. The ROM
adds a three-digit code to the front of this number. The first two digits
indicate the subsystem and the third digit indicates the severity of the
error that caused the alert. The # symbol usually terminates the
message. If no message is required, delete the # symbol.
