Configuring and Deploying Server Blades
3. Access the server blade through the iLO Remote Console. Refer to the “Access
the Server Blade with iLO Remote Console” in this chapter for more
information.
4. Insert the virtual diskette.
5. Use the iLO virtual power button to power the server blade off and then on, and
to set the blade to boot from the diskette image you created in step 2.
The server blade boots from the downloaded image and runs the Diagnostics Utility.
Automatic Server Recovery-2
ASR-2 is a feature that causes the system to restart when a catastrophic operating
system error occurs, such as a blue-screen or kernel panic. A system fail-safe timer,
the ASR-2 timer, starts when the System Management driver, also known as the
Health Driver, is loaded. When the operating system is functioning properly, the
system periodically resets the timer. However, when the operating system fails, the
timer expires and restarts the server blade.
ASR-2 increases server blade availability by restarting the server blade within
10 minutes after a system hang or shutdown. At the same time, the Insight Manager 7
console notifies you by sending a message to a designated pager number that ASR-2
has restarted the system. You can disable ASR-2 from the Insight Manager 7 console
or RBSU.
Integrated Management Log
