Configuration Utility. ASR-2 can reboot the server
after a critical system error. You can also configure
ASR-2 to page an administrator when the system
reboots.
The controller that you designate as primary or first
is the boot disk controller. This is the controller that
the system boots during start-up.
The part of the disk containing the boot software or

several partitions and can contain different operating
systems. However, you must designate one partition
as the boot partition to start the system.

kernel during the boot process.
