Diagnostic Tools
This chapter provides an overview of the diagnostic and management tools available for the
HP ProLiant DL360 Generation 3 server. For more detailed information and procedures, refer
to the HP ProLiant Servers Troubleshooting Guide on the Documentation CD.
Diagnostic Tools Overview
The following tools are available to diagnose problems, test hardware, and monitor and
manage server operations.
Automatic Server Recovery-2
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, ABEND (abnormal end), or
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.
ASR-2 increases server availability by restarting the server within a specified time after a
system hang or shutdown. At the same time, the Insight Manager 7 console notifies the user
by sending a message to a designated pager number, that ASR-2 has restarted the system. The
ASR-2 can be disabled from the Insight Manager 7 console or through RBSU.
Insight Manager 7
Insight Manager 7 is a Web-based application that allows system administrators to
accomplish normal administrative tasks from any remote location, using a Web browser.
Insight Manager 7 provides device management capabilities that consolidate and integrate
management data from HP and third-party devices.
For additional information, refer to the Management CD in the HP ProLiant Essentials
Foundation Pack.
